Pours a murky brown, with mimimal light brown foam. Powdery stuff on the edge of the glass. Smells faintly of strawberry, something I cannot place too. Tad thin, but easy. Taste is slight strawberry, definitely biscuityness. As it works, it becomes more strawberry cheesecake for sure. Some light astringency, but it strangely works somehow. Great fun. Yum pretzels

Keg at The St Albans beer shop, St Albans, Herts. A hazy golden/amber coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, pineapple, tropical fruit aroma and taste. Decent enough pale ale but not too much happening in this one.

500ml can. Pours murky golden with a thin white head. Aroma of tropical and citrus fruits. Taste is juicy, slightly sweet, ripe tropical fruits, pithy orange and grapefruit bitterness. Medium body, low carbonation. Very flavourful little pale.

Keg at the brewpub. Low key stone fruit aroma. Hazy light amber. Thin translucent white head. Light bitter/sour stone fruit. Medium bodied. Creamy. Flat carbonation. Dry slightly astringent finish. It's fine but just somewhat bland.

Keg at the brewpub. Aroma is a mixture of yeast, dough and light citrus with a sickly sweet almost lactose element. Medium gold. Thin creamy translucent white head offers sparse coverage. Initial citrus sour twang followed by malt sweetness. Sweet and sour but not overly pleasant. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat carbonation. Long astringent finish. It a fan of a Märzen and that goes for this. Sickly.

Keg at Croxtons, Southsea. Funky citrus and stone fruit tartness. Hazy dark waxy orange. Thick foamy white head. Medium-heavy sour with a parallel fruity sweetness. Vinous edge. Medium-heavy bodies. Creamy. Pithy. Low key carbonation. Dry astringent finish. Fruity. Sour. Yep. But now that I am adding it - marshmallow?

Thanks to HP for sharing. Smooth mild caramelly beginning. Very dry, deep with hints of cocoa and vanilla. Dry malty roasted finish, moderate bitterness, fruity in the finish. Ver nice deep.

Keg @ Tap and Can. Misty gold, small white head. Fruity red berry nose, sour. Comes across sour and sherbetty on the palate, some assorted sherbet fruits though nothing too distinct. Wasn't sure if it's aiming to replicate anything in particular, in a novelty craft beer way.. certainly a little odd and different.

Third of a pint, keg, on a flight in Tap & Can, Shrewsbury on 22nd Aug 2020. Murky amber pour, weak white head. Strange mix of fruits with a sourness I didn't really take too. Glad it only a third!
