12 oz bottle. Poured orange with a thin white head. Fruity, hints of vanilla past the yeasty odor. Flavor is sour, tart, fermented apples and woody. Very dry and felt a bit thin. I have only had a few beers of this style, so it is hard for me to give it a fair rating. Definitely not my favorite style, but still interesting.

On tap at th White Horse, Parsons Green, London. £7 a pint! Hazy yellow with no head. Sour citrus aromas. Earthy tart unmistakable flavours, not as complex or lively as bottled examples I’ve tried but still delicious.

375 ml green corked and capped bottle 2006 poured a clear gold with a lingering ring of off white foam. Aromas of sour citrus, horseblanket, light leather and a hint of vinegar. Palate was light bodied and crisp with a tart dry finish. Flavors of unsweetened white grapefruit, light leather and light funky barnyard with a crisp dry lingering tart finish.
