Bottle thanks to Ansjelaah. Hazy yellowish to light orange to golden color, small off-white head. Very nice aroma of fruityness and wine with only the slightest sour hint. Tastes the same: winey, fruityness, peach and again just the slightest sourish hint. Well somehow I really like it. Nicely balanced, a bit dry in the finish, medium body and soft carbonation. Lovely.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 tcane7 (904) - Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 10, 2013
Draft at Alla Spina. Pours a clean gold with some white head that dissolves quickly. Aroma of old wine grapes, manischewitz, apple, champagne yeast, blackberry brandy. Light and crisp but that murky grape flavor drags this down.

Bottle. Pours a lightly cloudy gold with a small white head. Faint aroma of straw and light white grape. Flavor is lightly tart and strangely sweet with notes of straw, light white grape, and cider. Fairly bland overall.

2/26/13. Ticking RBWG leftovers at Kickbacks... thanks, Steve! Clear golden pour with almost no head... it really looks like wine. The champagne yeast gives it an almost apple cider aroma but with more dryness and rich fruitiness. Rich white wine flavor, again with apple cider, some fruitiness and malt, and a touch of lingering dryness. Interesting.
