Very strange brew...and not even remotely to style. Pours a coppery red with a huge and quickly dissapating tan head. The nose is just unappealing...solvent like and off-putting. The flavors are similarly odd...fruits, vaporous solvents, funky esters. yeast sediment and sweet affey tapple. I’m done.

Pours a very opaque and muddy brownish red in color. No head forms at all on the pour. You can immediately pick up some fruity tones upon popping the cap. That’s where the positives cease. This tastes like a fruity alco-pop. Very fruity and alcoholic. Like a cheap bottle of Mad Dog 20/20. Medium mouthfeel and a somewhat cloying aspect. I love my boys at Founders, but they severly missed with this one.

On tap at The Oak Cafe. Transparent mahogany, ring of bubbles. Aroma has tons of fruit, banana, dark fruits and apple. Flavor on par with a big residuel sweetness. Slight alcohol warming. Nice silky smooth mouthfeel. On tap this was a nice brew, dissapointed when the bottles came out.

Pour is a ruby red with a fruity aroma. Flavor has a sweet natural fruit character, floral notes, and a medium malt character. Alcohol is hidden quite well. Has a bit of a dry finish. Good. May buy again.

a bottle obtained from <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=14352> cornfield . thanks, but it turns out i had this one in my cellar already. this is not the bottle you gave me.

pours cloudy translucent apricot color, almost no head, some little bubbles. the nose is sweet fruity hints. the flavor continues with sweet fruitiness, to finish with a kind of bubbly, sweet fruitiness (at least the sweet fruitiness is not cloying. i knocked a point off for this beer’s lack of complexity, but an interesting attempt nonetheless. i detected no alcohol in this brew, so the 9.8% abv was hidden very well.
