A Christmas beer from 2023 that was drunk in July 2024.

L: Opaque, dark honey coloured in the glass with a thin, dirty white head. There's no visible carbonation in the glass.

S: Very strong notes of generic tart sourness, but nothing stands out as a defined aroma.

T: Very tart, like underripe fruit from a tree, or even crab apples, if you've ever been unfortunate enough to eat one of them. There's a hint of dark honey retronasally and even a touch of harsh bitterness at the end, presumably more from the honey than any hop load. Ultimately, however, the tartness overrides all and makes this one a sipper because mouthfuls any bigger than that would be too puckering. The finish is very long and very tart.

M: The beer is quite prickly and carbonated in the mouth, far more so than is evident from the visuals.

O: I didn't enjoy this; it was simply too sour, and the honey note from the barrels that the beer was aged in gave the beer a bitterness that didn't sit well with the overall tartness of the beer.

Cheers!
