Pint from the keg at The Old Fountain, London. Pours hazy orange with a white head. Aromas & tastes of pineapple, grapefruit, pine & Mosiac hops. Medium body. Light bitter finish. Highly enjoyable. Either because it was so well kept, but this was the best score of the day and so not a Blonde / Golden Ale more like a APA

Hazy, fruity, mildly sour in design, with this sourness most pronounced in its aftertaste, but light all the same.

Can from LCB, 6 months in date. My 50th in the flavoured sour style and a new brewery for me. Pours a deep purple with small dark pinkish foam. Quite plum like in aroma with a touch of pomegranate and flora. Again taste is mostly plum with a hint of pomegranate and a light earthy floral note. Modest tartness but its pleasant and balanced in the flavour. Light to medium bodied, fairly slick but an edge of sherbet chalkiness. Half way between a standard fruit beer and an actual sour. Enjoyable though.
