Can from Wales Ales. Pours a murky purple with thin white top. Aroma of cherry and maple with hint of almond. Taste of cherries and a maple syrup that gives it a slight desert richness but not overdone. Tart but not full on sour. Near mid-bodied, fine carbonation. Decent.

440ml can. Pours a misty gold with a faint pink tint. Expected it to be red, being a raspberry & apricot sour but it's not. Mild fruity notes, not particularly sour, more of a tang really, but no complaints, it drinks well even if it lacks punch.

Can. Cloudy pale orange with a fluffy cm or so of white head. Citrus rind aroma - Meyer lemon, grapefruit - with some honeydew melon, crackers. Lightish bodied but enough. Crackers under citrus, quite punchy bitterness. Refreshing.
