Draft at HOMES. Pours a thick ruby red color with a finger of pink foam that dissipates. Big raspberry yogurt focused nose. Dried raspberry skin with fruit. Jammy raspberry on the palate. Light seed astringency, tart berry. Delish.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 3/29/2019. Pours very hazy deep ruby red/pink/purple color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky light pink head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big juicy/tart/tangy raspberries, strawberries, fruit skin/seeds, lemon, lime, orange, peach, pear, melon, red/green apple, red/grape wine, hay, straw, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, light pepper/lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of raspberry, strawberry, fruity/acidic yeast, lactose, and pale/wheat malt notes; with big strength. Taste of huge juicy/tart/tangy raspberries, strawberries, fruit skin/seeds, lemon, lime, orange, peach, pear, melon, red/green apple, red/grape wine, hay, straw, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, light pepper/lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Light fruity/lactic tart/sourness, fruit tang, and spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of sour/tart/tangy raspberries, strawberries, fruit skin/seeds, lemon, lime, orange, peach, pear, melon, red/green apple, red/grape wine, hay, straw, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, light pepper/lacto funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Amazing complexity, robustness, and balance of raspberry, strawberry, fruity/acidic yeast, lactose, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with a fantastic malt/tart/sourness and tangy fruit balance; with no cloying/puckering flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering tart/sourness and tangy fruit. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready/grainy, and fairly acidic/tangy/tannic mouthfeel that is fantastic. Minimal warming alcohol for 6.6%. Overall this is an amazing fruited milkshake sour. All around incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of raspberry, strawberry, fruity/acidic yeast, lactose, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mellowly acidic/tangy/tannic/drying finish; fantastic soft feel, and not overly lactic. Amazing balance of super juicy/jammy berries, lactose, and pale/wheat malts against acidity. Lightly sweet with lingering dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and amazing top tier style example as expected.

(On tap @ Witchstock, again @ Birreria Volo, Toronto, Oct 1/18) Pours rather hazed bright pinkish-red with a fading pale pink head. Notes of juicy raspberry slightly dominating over fresh strawberry but both come through, sweet and lightly to moderately tart with a citrusy acidity, subtle ice cream/yoghurt feel, long berry-filled finish. Medium-full bodied and softly carbonated. A great lactose berry Berliner, not quite reaching the highs of B1 Angry Chair Strawberry Cream but those are big fruity boots to fill...

(Tap) cloudy, bright reddish colour with a small pinkish head; aroma of strawberry; sour flavour with a long, medium sour finish; very nice, works both as a sour and as a fruit beer - which does not happen often
