Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - deep orangey red. No head to speak of. Nose - deep red fruit notes, light ginger and the orange is more subtle. Taste - tart, floral and dank. More red fruits than orange again. Palate - tart and funky. Light to medium bodied, good length. Overall - yep, good.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours darkest brown to black with a decent tan head. The aroma is juicy cherry, tart, tangy, cacao, roasted malt, coffee grounds, jam and dull toffee. The taste is tarter than expected, juicy, tart cherry juice is the main player then eventually drops out, puckering, dull roast, touch of cacao and coffee with a dry, toasty finish. Medium body and average carbonation. In comparison to the other ratings seems that this has got more sour. Cuts through it. Drinks easy. Decent.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours cloudy blonde to amber with a decent frothy white head. The aroma is earthy, spicy, wood, earthy, cereal, behind it is sweet ripe coconut, coconut cake, some greenness, chalky vibes, mochi and Turkish delight. The taste is firmly dry, earthy, wood, spruce, spicy, leafy, bitter orange peel, campari, slight astringency, green coconut, pineapple, Pina colada, powdery / chalky vibes, mochi, floral vibes and a touch of booze with a drying, bitter citrus peel finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Sometimes kviek yeast amplifies the fruity vibes but for me it muddles things here a bi As a sabro-bro I still like it but had hoped for more.
