Bottle at BrewMaster’s Craft Beer Festival. Pours a hazy pink with small off white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is pear and apple skin. Thin body, light pear, apple, light tartness, decent.

5oz draft pour at Whole Foods Old Town Alexandria. Poured a clear light purple juice color with a fizzy off-white head. Aroma was blackberry with a touch of pear juice. The pears come out of this one a lot more than I’m used to with these - where the pear is really muted which leaves just a generic juice flavor. Blackberry was a nice addition. This was a lot less sweet than I expected.

Pretty nice. Light tarr/tangy blackberry with medium sweet pears; slight earth/spice. Balanced/smooth/dryish finish. Very pleasant.

Pours a reddish-purple color. It smells mainly of berries. The flavor is sweet with blackberries dominating and some pear in the background. It’s okay, but less than impressive.
