Deep brick red and nearly no head. Sour aroma. Berries, sugary fruits, champagne, and earthy. Very tasty, though the body is a bit thin. The sweet berries strike first followed by some light tart notes. Finishes like champagne, I just wish it lingered a little longer. Crisp and refreshing; I could drink this all night.

375 shared with dpjuart. Pours reddish with a slight amber hue. Has a small thin pinkish head with some sweet raspberries in the nose. Also some champagne and fresh-baked bread alcohol. A great raspberry taste that is a strong sourness, yet nicely balanced with the sweetness and some maltiness. A very fine fizzy carbonation with a dry-ish finish.

350ml bottle shared with Naka. Pours slight purple with an amber hue, slightly hazy w/ beige head, small and foamy w/ good lacing. Nose is berry w/ a touch of bready yeastiness. Blackberry taste, not overpowringly sweet, a touch of sour towards the end. There’s some malt character in the middle somewhere. Dry, sour finish. Thin mouthfeel with little carb.

Pours a dark cranberry red color with a small pinkish beige head. Very sour aroma of raspberries and alcohol. Very tasty despite its overly fruity aroma. A nice balance of sour and raspberry taste.
