Thanks to Bob for the bottle! Poured clear, coppery-pinkish with very little, if any headage. The aroma picked up tart blackberry seeds and vinegary notes backed by pale malts and a bit of blackberry meat.. something dank gave some influence too.. not bad. The flavor found honey and pale malts at the core with sour, tangy blackberry seeds and vinegar again.. finished tart and somewhat refreshing, but it had too many residual sugars. Slick and light-bodied on the palate.. very tart throughout.. not a bad feel or flow to it. This was aiight.

Pours a slightly hazy reddish amber with a small white/pink head. Nose is fruity. Very bubbly on the palate. Taste is of tart berries with a dry finish. This beer is tart enough to cause your mouth to pucker. Strickly a novelty beer, worth a try, but isn’t a beer I would regularly pour.

Picked up a single 12-oz bottle from the Fox River, Appleton Mall location. Pours a clear iced tea amber colored brew with a fast dissolving pinking white head that dissipates clean and no lacing. Aroma of coriander and tart berries with a hint of golden multi-grain malt with wheat. Taste is light to medium bodied with flavors of sweet berries, some coriander, and dry wheat malt. Finish is slightly metallic, some plastic aftertaste that finishes semi-dry. It’s different.
