Beer number ten at the 31st May 2026 Bandstand Beer Gathering in Shrewsbury, five of us sharing stuff. Cheers Mike for the 75cl cork and caged bottle of this. Just a little to sour for my palate, but I understand why others purr over it. Scored objectively.

Beer number eight at the 31st May 2026 Bandstand Beer Gathering in Shrewsbury, five of us sharing stuff. 440ml can, black, no head worthy of the name. Sweet coconut dominate the nose and taste, along with the tonka beans; not unpleasant but but a little overpowering for my palate.

Beer number five at the 31st May 2026 Bandstand Beer Gathering in Shrewsbury, five of us sharing stuff. Cheers Simon for the 440ml can of this sour puss. Hazy orange pour, kind of white topping. Sour mango and other rotting fruits in the nose and taste, no thanks (scored objectively).

440ml can between 5 at the 31st May 2026 Bandstand Beer Gathering in Shrewsbury. Cheers Mark for this new 'blast from the past'. Poured with a slight haze and a white topping on each glass. Not how I remember it of course, but it's refreshing and easy to swill, just like the original version. Bitter with a semi sweetness, but not much going on really.
