Description
We first started Carnival in a kitchen in Liverpool after a fundraising event at the Clearview Carnival, 2017. It is where we met and started the journey of Carnival Brewing Company over a love of music and beer. Now here we are, developing our very own fundraiser for the future endeavours of Carnival.

440ml can, taken away from the Blue Boar and drunk at home. Pours a light golden orange, hazy with a tiny ring of white head. Light aroma of oranges, some creamy notes... it's very muted. Taste is sweet, oranges and a little bit of lactic sweet/sourness. Medium body with tight carbonation. It's okay, but doesn't really stand out. I'd like a bit more flavour truthfully.

Can from the Milbourne Arms, Carlisle. Pours murky orange with a thick white head. Aromas of orange and lactose as as expected. Taste is more of the same, but not as horrendously sweet as these things can be. Thick body, clean finish.

Can shared at the Ben Burrows memorial virtual bottle share. Cheers Grumbo. Aroma of sherbet comes through straightaway with passion fruit. A good mix from initial sourness to sweet. An enjoyable sour.

Can from Beer52. Pours a near black, moderate sized beige head which lasts, nice lacing. Aroma of coffee, roasted malts, grains, some dark chocolate. Taste is mainly roasted malts but there are light chocolate and coffee elements as well as a bit of fruitiness in the middle. Light to medium bodied, quite smooth with a soft carbonation. Very enjoyable session stout.
