Bottle from SH Jones,Bicester, Saturday 7th December 2013 consumed the same day at Carol & Haydn’s party It was quite dark when I was drinking this so I cannot be certain of the colour, however it might of looked a reddy/dark amber. Aroma is predominantly fresh raspberries but there is a very pronounced nod to lambic here. In fact I passed this onto two friends who have been to Belgium with Loz and myself quite a few times, when I passed it to them I said nothing but they both said very similar things and both believed they were drinking a Belgian fruit Lambic. This is tart in the mouth, hugely refreshing, would be great in the summer, zappy raspberries and a wonderful sourness. Dry on the finish, this is lovely and quite an unexpected hit, I thought it would be good as Compass have done sone good beers of late but this is very, very good. I shall definately be off to SH Jones again soon for some more of these, I had Beavertown 8 Ball and a Partizan beer however this was easily the best of the night. I believe that this was a SIBA gold medal winner in some recent awards event and rightly so it is fully justified. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov17 4.0
