Nose is tarte fruit esters, pear drop, funk, plummy tones, damp hay. Taste comprises stewed fruits, green berry skins, funk, rhubarb, sharp plums, hay bale.

Bottle. Via the online shop I think. Deep purple with a slim pink foam. Nose has blackcurrants. Light oak. Yoghurt. Bit of plastic. Taste is dry and lightly tart with a bit of a burnt plastic bitterness. Jaggedy on the palate. Foamy carbonation. Short dry finish. Doesn’t do it for me. Missus walloped it though. So there’s that.

Brum gathering, Tilt Tasting; 2nd July 2022. Cheers Fergus (sat on my right) for the 750ml bottle of this to share with the gang. I got it early, so it was almost clear bodied, orange in colour with a reddish hue, white head. Red berries and old plums in the nose and taste, more of a tart puss than a sour puss.
