Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5.5
On tap at R&B, pours an opaque dark orange with a small white head. Nose is pretty muted, with faint earthy blackberry pith. Flavour is much the same, with muted earthy blackberry pith and maybe some hop bitterness. The hell is the point fresh hopping a blackberry wheat ale, let alone serving it in January. Useless.

On tap at Steamworks Mount Pleasant. Pours a dull, murky ruddy colour with a white head. Light blackberries, pine, and lacto on the nose. Flavour has a dry, woody pine character, a bit muddled, some tart blackberries and tough grass. Not getting much fresh hop character, but as a hopped kettle sour this is a soft okay.
