Our tart take on hot cross buns pairs a medley of juicy berries with sweet icing and a hint of cinnamon, creating a soft, pillowy mouthfeel - just like a warm pastry.

LCI. Cinnamon, apple, some berry. Pie maybe more than hot cross buns. Very sweet

Slightly cloudy dark red pour with a small reddish head. Aromas of pears, apples, berries, apple cinamon, a hint of grain. Tastes fairly similar, decent sour finish - berries and sour cherries. Others would have used sugar and flavourings to get to such a result.

Can from The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Jammy red fruits, cinnamon, icing sugar & strawberry sherbet aromas. Taste is much the same. Sweet cakey brew with a light sour edge.
