On tap at Urban Artifact, pours a cloudy dark rusted red with a small beige head. Aroma is full of green earthy, somewhat muted raspberries and blueberries, with gentle wild character. Flavour is very fruity and nicely tart and dry, with cherry and raspberry galore, followed by gentle bugginess, and very low-level sweetness — mostly attenuated out. Very nicely constructed.

Canned 6/4/22, drunk 8/4/22. Royal purple, some sediment leading to low clarity. Large, yellow-pink-tinted head shows moderate retention. Huge fruitiness in the nose is completely enveloping and delightful. The authenticity of their fruit addition and complete power of it is always impressive. Light sourness behind it with lactic and fruit acids contributing. No alcohol or flaw. Malts are supportive but mostly out of the way adding biscuit and cracker. Soft and juicy in the mouth with great attenuation and a huge black-raspberry flavor. Big tartness picks up leading to some yeast-like character that must be the yeast in suspension. It adds a dull and even lightly metallic character. Otherwise the beer is flawless and quite well-balanced though tending tart and moderately acidic.

12 ounce can from Festival Darboy, 9/5/21. Hazy beet red, large fizzy pinkish head, fair retention. Aroma of tart jammy berries. Taste is blackberry, raspberry. Juicy, fresh, jammy. Not much else. Lingering tartness. Interesting. Decent.

Pours reddish-purple and has a rich berry aroma with blackberries in particular standing out. The flavor is pleasantly, moderately tart. To me it's not on the high end of tart as the chart on the can shows, but it's nice. Fruity and not too sweet.

Can shared with Chris M: pours purplish red with pink head and oily residue. Taste is berries. Taste is a bit flat, sweet and sour fruitiness. Not my favourite. Kind of thin.

Can. A- Raspberry, blackberry, mild vanilla. A- Purple red color, clear liquid, pink head. T- Ripe red raspberry, blackberry, mild vanilla, tart. P- Medium body, average texture, medium carbonation, tart finish. O- Everytime I have an Urban beer I love them a little bit more. This is superbly refreshing. Loads and loads of fresh ripe raspberry and blackberry. Definitely tart but not acidic. Very jammy. Hard to find anything I didn't like about this. Delicious.
