Can from Elusive brewery. Rich dark chocolate and coffee aroma. Dark. A cola tint. Frothy beige head soon fades. Initial berry sourness. Underlying malty chocolate is overpowered. Some lactose creaminess. Medium bodied. Slick. A tad creamy. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long astringent finish. It's fine. Could do with more of the promised chocolate.

Keg at MS HW, 07/03/20. Pinky orange with a crimson cap. Nose is mellow berry yoghurt, damp straw, berry pips, grass. Taste comprises light tangy raspberries, hay bale, lemon drizzle, tarte berry compote, airy malts, straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a very modest puckering kiss. Ok mellow berry refresher but rather simplistic and lacking much in the way of a sour profile.
