UPDATED: JUL 5, 2023 500ml bottle pours out purple red color topped with a fizzy head. Nose is nice crisp tart berries and some sour notes. Taste is more of the nice crisp berries a little jammy and tart mix. Very nice.

Bottle at the radikal whale slaying. Thnx to Anton ! Pours dark, unclear red/purple. Smell is intense, very intense, juicy berries. Mild sournote. very full! Taste is intensely sour, but with a very decent complexity underneat. Fruits are full-on intense, very juicy berries, mild sweet notes . Not sure how many kg’s of berries went in here, but i’m sure there were A LOT . Decent mf and low ( perfect) carbo. Starts of dry ( perhaps a bit too dry for me) but as soon as the berries kick in, the dryness is countered by the full fruityness. Extremely good fruitsour indeed !

ctipping (4084) - Florida, USA - DEC 10, 2016
500 mL bottle . Originally reviewed 1/27/2014. Dark hazy reddish purple. Nice pink head. Pretty. Nose has tons of blackberry. Acidic. A little bit of funky yeast to it. Some oak. Tastes bright and grainy right up front. Sweet blackberry. Immediately sour. Tart and funky. Oak. Some lemony flavors. Strong sourness. Grainy. Medium body. Excellent. The fruit flavor that New Glarus is famous for but it has the complexity of a great sour beer.
