  Collective Arts Sour: Pomegranate and Grapefruit Sour
  rated 3.2 1 month ago

  Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

  Sample from can at a tasting at Cardinal (not in the pub's regular selection, AFAIK). Peach-coloured beer, moderate off-white head. Aroma and flavour of lactic acid, pomegranate and grapefruit. So what? Not bad, but one in a baker's dozen of sour beers. Yawn.
