Tart saison-style beer aged in oak barrels with Merlot grapes. Somewhere between beer and wine, the flavors found in this beer blur the lines. With a wine-like acidity and moderate tannic finish, Blurred M showcases a medium body with notes of plum, black cherry, and tobacco.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy burgundy, small pink-white head, some lacing. Aroma is Merlot forward, with funk, bugs, dust, oak, and hints of acetone. Flavor is dry, full of red wine, medium funk, a bit sharp and off-putting. Medium body. Not my thing.
