Red-orange with a medium white head. Tart cranberry aroma with sweet malt intermingled. Very dry, with strange rye bread flavors. Sour finish.

Had on tap at the brewpub. Nothing special, and not very cranberry either. I was really hoping for more tart/fruit flavor.

tap at the brewpub. poured a pale orange with not much head or lace. mild fruit flavor and hops are virtually non-existent. little carbonation with a tart dry finish. not one of Blue Cat’s better efforts.

Draught at the brew pub. Clear orange-brown color with a thin off white head that didn’t leave much lace behind. Smelled of light clove and dried fruit (not necessarily just cranberry, though). Had a definite Belgian-esque flavor with clove and subdued cranberry flavors accented by toasted bread. Tart, fruity finish.

It had an orange look with a white head. It had sweet cranberry smell. The taste was very dry with a grainy/bread sort of taste. It had a sour finish that killed it for me.
