3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Pours a clear light red with little head and aromas that remind me of cranberry juice with added tartness. Flavor is... well... I guess interesting is a good way of putting it. It is acidic, but less sour than I expected. The finish is bandaid tasting and a little medicinal. I was hoping for better on this one.

Hazy orange-red-brown body. Minimal head. Currants, grapes, vinegar, cherry-like fruits, and a potent acidity. Medium bodied. Aggressive sourness. Relatively complex and enjoyable.
