How sour is too sour? 🍋😵‍💫

Vault City have just turned the dial all the way up.

Brainmelting Fluid is their most sour beer yet, hitting the brand-new Sour Scale: 6 — lemon, lime & raspberry packed into a seriously sharp 6.8% modern sour.

We’ve got a limited number at The Crafty Fox.

£12.50 a can. When it’s gone, it’s gone.

Think you can handle a 6? 👀
