Stepping away from our usual sour style, our latest Radler turns up the dial on juicy sweetness with the bold, citrus-packed punch of blood orange.

Juicy and crushable at 3.4%, with Saphir hops rounding out the flavour enhancing citrus and subtle floral notes.

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pink colour, moderate head, slightly off-white. Aroma of blood orange soda. Medium sweet flavour of blood orange soda, low bitterness. Uninteresting.

Sesongstart for Mi2 på Cardinal: lett uklar rødgylden med fint skum som varer. Blodappelsinbrus for fjortiser, og helt sikkert en god tørstedrikk på beachen i det landet som heter Syden.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Sweet with lots of blood orange. Not bad for the style, not as artificial tasting as most supermarket Radlers.

330ml can. Hazy orangered, off-white head. Aroma of blood orange, lemon, strawberry(?). Taste is quite sweet, the blood orange is nice, lemon, getting something like strawberry. Light bodied. Nice but too sweet for the style I felt, though now I've read the description it sounds like it was intentional so... fair enough.

Draught keg at Vine Street Tap and Bottle. Pinkish orange and mostly clear with an uneven pinkish white head. Smells like a posh orange soda. The orange and lemon/lime character, along with a touch of pink grapefruit, seem to be coming through very well. Taste is just too sweet, and I like sweet beer. Yes it is a radler but my goodness. Short finish and light body with pretty heavy carbonation. It is a good summer drink with nice orange flavour, but yes quite sweet as I may have mentioned!

On tap at Low Key Taproom Ashford. Red pink hazed colour lasting white head. Blood red orange aroma. Mix of sweet and sour. Mostly sweet. Good easy drinking beer. Yep simple but drinkable. Not sure I'd do more than a pint though. Some sherbet on finish. Light vanilla milk character. OK.

Can from Westhill Service Station. Hazy pink body with a thin pale pink head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of rhubarb and candied blood orange. Flavour of raspberry sherbet and strawberry laces. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Sweet and fruity. I expected it to be more sour.
