330 ml bottle, batch #8, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 4.8%. Deep golden to brownish colour, minimal white head. Sourish / acidic aroma, notes of brettanomyces / farmhouse and vinegar. Fairly sour and acidic / vinegary flavour, with a dry and woody finish. Moderate hops. I’ve had worse beers (also from this brewery), but will hardly buy again.

'London murky' rusty brown. Not much head. Smells pleasant enough: Granny Smiths, rose wine, sourdough, rosehips, Ribena, and something intriguingly tropical-floral. Passionfruit honeysuckle or some such?
Quite sour, but on the 'refreshing' side of sour rather than the 'abrasive' side. Crabapple-y, cranberry-ish, redcurrant-like, underripe raspberry-esque. Mostly tart red fruit bolstered by a sprightly fizz, so it does what it says on the tin. But it feels a bit hollow – except for a hint of wholegrain toast, there's not much going on beneath all that acidity. It tastes like a Flemish red, but with the subtly sweet earthiness and depth that comes from ageing stripped away. But then again it would make a reasonably decent fruit lambic. Pretty good, but not one I'd rush to buy again.
