A fruited wheat beer conditioned in copious amount of blackberry. This light and super sessionable beer is light, crisp, slightly tart, and very enjoyable for the Spring and Summertime!

Reviewed from notes.
Growlette to becher glass.
Appearance: dark pink to purple color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: blackberry sweet and tart scents up front with a light sweet wheaty malt backbone
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to tart character; finishes slightly juicy with some blackberry sweetness
Texture: light to medium bodied; sessionable; good smoothness along the tongue with a good carb about it
Overall: nice enough easy going blackberry ale I could come back to and I think they're canning this now.
