Keg @ The Paper Duck, Harborne, Birmingham. Pours hazy dirty gold, thin head. Odd spicy floral aroma, taste is rather light and drying, lacking much of the promised floral, fruity elements. Very little sourness to it. Again, an odd spicy element that I can't quite put my finger on. Not bad, just falling a little short of what I expected.

Gravity cask at the 2017 Nottingham Beer Festival. Reddish brown, hazy with a tiny bit of beige head around the rim. Lots of raspberry and green tea in the aroma, and I'm also getting notes of oak and stewed vegetable. Taste is uncompromisingly sour, with sour fruit and woody notes, turning somewhat acrid closer to the long finish. I enjoyed it, but it's hard going.

Tried at the Keg Bar at the Peterborough Beer Festival. Hazy golden amber colour with a white head. The beer is fruity and slight sour with a light refreshing body.
