Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7
Muddy red-brown, off-white head. The aroma is not very strong but nice and balanced - light caramel, clean tannic Cranberry notes (no oxidation, no pomace), restrained rosemary / spruce spice. Similar taste - very low crystal sweetness, more unsweet berry fruity notes (cranberries, seabuckthorn and such), mild berry skin astringency and moderate rosemary resins. Juicy, very easy drinking body without being watery (in fact, I'd rather call it a summer ale). Fruity in the best possible way, free of fruit induced off flavours. The only complaint - too much of a quencher, and not really a winter time sipper.
