On keg at Brewdog Lothian Rd, Edinburgh. Appearance - bright red and slightly autumnal looking. Nose - tart red fruit. I'm going to say raspberry and cherry. Woody note. Taste - tangy red fruit again. Maybe even strawberry this time. Palate - long and tangy finish. Gently tapered. Close to medium bodied. Overall - excellent sour. Not quite in the vinegar realms of Flemish red but pretty close.

Can in NH. Gusher! It might be a little aged, to be fair. Pours clear honey-gold with a billowing, frothy white head. Not bad, some floral and piney hops, sun-kissed pale malts. Light bodied with average, massaging carbonation. Finishes with more bitter pine, citrus peel, Flora notes, crispy pale grains. Decent.
