"Jammin' Juice" Turbo Brew


"Jammin' Juice"

ABV: 4.5%

Date Bottled: 22/03/13

Recipe: 4 litres of Tropical Jammin' Fruit Juice1tsp Pectolase, 2tsp Malic Acid, 1tsp Wine Tannin, 1tsp Yeast Nutrient

Yeast: Youngs Super Wine Yeast

Presentation (Colour): Very similar to the original colour - "orangey" tropical fruit juice. Very little sediment [7/10]

Aroma: No evidence of yeast at all, smells very much like the original tropical fruit juice [7/10] 

Taste: This has essentially come out exactly as I would expect it to. it is basically alcoholic fruit juice and there is only evidence of a very slight alcohol taste. [7/10]

Fizz: An initial hit of fizz, but not overpowering. [7/10]

Overall Score: 7/10

Verdict: This was VERY much an attempt to do something different, other than the usual bog-standard apple brews. There is no evidence AT ALL of yeast flavours within the brew itself, which is most likely down to the type of yeast used. A refreshing summer drink though, which I quite like, but not what I would consider a "session" brew.

"Jammin' Juice" - 4.5%
