MBCC2019 Red Session. Pours somewhat yellowish pink, some white foam on the top. Tart nose, quite earthy, cherries really overshadowed by red beets. Taste follows the similar direction, getting mainly red beets from there, tart and acidic red beets. I do like the idea and execution is also not bad, just not sure if earthy sour is really something I want to drink again.
