On tap at the brewery. Pours a cloudy deep red with a touch of rose and a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has rich strawberry that is slightly tart with a bit of flora underlying. Flavor is similar with tart strawberry that has a slight sweetness and a bit of flora coming through.

29/3/2025. Can from Left Field Beer. Pours very slightly hazy pale golden orange with a small frothy white head. Had been expecting something very different. Aroma is woody, yeasty, citrus, musty, mixed berries. Good tartness, sour edge, quite dry. Medium body, light spritzy carbonation. Developing sour finish. Interesting.
