Draught keg at Sommar Leicester. Reddish golden, clear with a tiny film of white head. Strawberry aroma, some vanilla ice cream notes, fairly basic stuff. Comes together a bit more in the taste with the tart fruit showing more as promised raspberry. The initial sourness is drowned out by a dessert sweetness in the finish. Light body and low carbonation. Decent, and certainly more than the sum of its parts, but one of the weaker Sommar beers I've tried.

Draft at Sommar Waterloo Street, Birmingham. Poured a murky golden orange colour with a thin white head. The aroma is grainy malt, big mango. The flavour is moderate to light sweet, with a smooth, rich, dry, juicy mango, floral hop palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Tasty, but more like a fruit juice. Arenโt beers supposed to be bitter?
