On tap at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Pours red with a light pink head. Cherry drops & raspberry jam aromas. Jammy red fruit flavours, whack of almond. Sweet 'n' tarty finish.

Keg at the St Albans beer festival 2023. A light hazed deep crimson red cherry coloured pour with a lasting fine pink head. Aroma is nice, semi sweet, cherry, woody raspberry, cherry cordial, light funk. Airy. Flavour is composed of semi sweet deep cherry. Woody raspberry, airy mineral, mellow funk, zippy lacto. Palate is tart, airy carbonation. Tannin, lovely funky fruit character.
