Limited Edition No. 20 - Raspberry & Gooseberry Sour
Hope Beer

look: deadly looking beer, fizzy light pink head quickly dissipates, beer is a super hazy murky magenta to blood red colour, too hazy to see any carbonation.

smell: nice smelling sour, nicely tart, raspberry dominates but there is certainly gooseberry, quite sweet, almost juicy, hint of vanilla, rhubarb, floral and herbal, quite intriguing.

taste: that is quite a sour beer indeed, tart raspberry, more gooseberry than on the nose, cherry, sour blueberry, rhubarb, floral notes, quite sweet which balances with the sourness nicely, fruit and sour flavours linger on the finish, good.

feel: light bodied, medium carbonation, serious puckering sourness, very drinkable though and refreshing.

overall: very solid fruited sour here from Hope, much better than the last one they released, although my palate was not as accustomed to sour beers back then so maybe i was too harsh on the other one
