Hazy straw. Some head on pour, OK fishscale surface retention and some lacing. Sweeties (specifically, Love Hearts and Gummy Bears) aroma. Drier taste - more Love Heart sherbet than Gummy jelly - and after.

Peachy red. Some head as poured, with little to no retention but some lacing. Strawberry juice aroma, bit hoppy, developing brine tartness. Swtrawberries and Cream sweetie taste, obviously enough, similarly creamy after. Tart, more than sour, as is the way with Fruit Sours
Raspberry Blueberry Bubblegum Sour by Play Brew Co. positive

Quality: 67, Enjoyability: 70, Overall: 68.5
Cloudy red amber. Very little head as poured, with no retention or lacing. Fruity, sour, cheap bubblegum aroma. Fizzy Bottle taste, gummy after. Like a less extreme version of the Vault City one, without the tongue staining.
Jelly Baby Sour by Play Brew Co. positive

Quality: 63, Enjoyability: 68.5, Overall: 65.75
Cloudy red. Very large pink head on pour, with very good retention and OK lacing. Almost meaty (?! - umami?), sour blackcurrant aroma. Blackcurrany Jelly Baby taste and after. Even had the dry, cornflour/icing suger coating quality, which was an odd but nice touch.

Murky purple. Some pink head on pour, dispersing. Initial red liquorice aroma, blackcurrant pulp in close. Fruity taste, cola bottle tingly after. Thick

Murky brown. Some head as poured, with OK retention and good lacing. Those fruity, chewy sweets I can’t remember the name of aroma, bit earthy under. Similar taste, random fruit after. Bit syrup.
