750ml via their online club. Couple months in the fridge. Pint glass at home.
Dull amber, frothy pour. Why so frothy?
Twang, lots of skin, rose water, bold cherry juice - crab apple nose.
Tasting notes are on point, it does taste a lot like grilled pineapple with woody notes. Bit of veggie & oxidation that becomes more prominent & distracting as it warms.
A bit boozy & it pushes the faults more than the initial twangy flavor.
Nah.
