Flip-top 0.75 litre bottle, number 21 out of only 25. Shared (between 5) on 14th June 2016, cheers Simon for bringing this strange brew to the table. Dirty Vimto in looks with a wisp and collar for a head. Sour plums came to mind as I sniffed and sipped this ’different’ beer. Actually quite enjoyed it.
