Birthday gift from my S-i-L. Suspect it was purchased at Beer Metropolis, Penge. Aroma has low key sour Damson, with a yeasty malty edge. Hazy peachy-red. Makes me think of some sort of peach based cocktail. Large but delicate looking white head. Medium bitter. Resinous hops alongside the sour Damson. Underlying yeasts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat-average carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice enough without overly impressing me.
