Bottle shared at RBBWG 2023. Dark copper color, no head. Aroma and flavor are sourish, unripe fruit, fruitpeel. Solid though. But you've gotta stand sourness.

Pours clear, darker amberred. Small - no white head. Scent is harsh, twigs, cherry, very green and herbal, underripe fruits. Taste is sharp, intensely tart - bith by the lambic and the seemingly underripe fruit, very green and herbal. Not very balanced, nor do I really enjoy the fruityness in this one. Slightly too acetic. Harsh.

Bottled 10/07/2020. Dark red, light carbonation. Nicely sour. Dry, woody, and funky, and a great amount of fruit. Raspberry and cherry are there, without being too sharp, and the elderflower gives something light and floral. Very tasty stuff.

Heavy raspberry and elderflower character. Quite acidic. Lovely beer but I think I preferred the Three Seasons. The raspberries come on a bit too strong for me and overwhelms the sour cherries.

2018 Batch Elderflower - Sour Cherry - Raspberry Pink, medium head over cloudy brownish deep-red beer. Very prominent, explosive elderflower nose; chili salsa, capsicum; fruity. More fruit in the flavour, red berries, but again lots of elderflower and the capsicum salsa. Barnyard odours in the background. Sourbite, acidthinning, making it lean. Finish shows some acetic acid for sure. Very strange flavours, but equally pleasing. Not one for the faint-hearted.
