Bottle from wegman chitauqua. Purple colored, very nice. Taste is somewhat like wine, cheap wine. Smells like grapes. Yes, some cheaper under-fermented wine with a little beer. Unique and a little worrisome. Difficult sweetness makes me concerned about my belly. Let me think, cheap local concord wine mixed one quarter part wine with three quarter parts friendly lager beer? There is some c02 but didn't notice it till the end

Draft at Shepherd and Knucklehead. Clear purple. Straight up Concord grape juice. Drinks sweet, just a hint of tartness, and a bit of bread. Otherwise, this is juice. I happen to like it.

Bottle. Pours cloudy purplish dark red with small foamy pinkish head, sharp grape juice aroma with a hint of spices, high carbonation, sweetish grape taste, thin body, long sweet grape finish. Very interesting brew, more like grape juice.

Sample at the brewpub. Hazy reddish-purple color with a thin and fizzy pinkish-purple head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing. Vinous aroma with wheat and malt notes. Medium body with flavors of grape juice and grainy malt. The finish is fruity with a grape and wheat aftertaste. Decent overall.
