Bottle at Craigs big Edinburgh tasting, this bottle courtesy of ’Craig’, thanks mate. Shared in company of Craig, Stella, Jan, Charlotte, Fritz and Loz 30.10.10 Pours amber with a white head. Nice streaky fruitiness dashing through straight away, fizzy but soft fizzy in the mouth. Really tart but balanced with sweetness. This is a zappy mouth awakener that said its also balanced by a hefty sweetness. Aroma is more shyer than expected. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8

From dkachur @ 12th Richmond Gathering: Wood, old, sour nose, fairly typical of the New Glarus Unplugged series. Clear amber, thin head. Cranberry flavor, pleasantly tart. Solidly good.

12 ounce bottle courtesy of CaptainCougar, thank you sir. Pours bright and clear blood orange, tiny edge bubbles, moderate lacing. Aroma of apple skins, cranberries, lemon, white grapes. Taste has a slightly sweet start then transitions to moderate acidity. Halfway through, a bit of funk shows up and stay through the finish, which also ends on sour summer fruit notes. Interesting and unique.

Bottle. Taste and aroma of wild strawberries, raspberries and cranberries. Good body and a balanced sweetness. But still, to me this is alco pop rather than a beer just like the other New Glarus fruit beers I’ve tried

Bottle. Pours red-orange. No head. The aroma is an explosion of sweet, sweet fruit and berries. Only New Glarus can come up with this stuff! Notes of cloudberries and raspberries (even if it’s brewed with cranberries...). The taste is as sweet and fruity as the aroma, but a bit one dimensional in the long run. Slightly vinous. Not the most compex beer. Sticky textture. Medium bodied.

12 oz bottle from nimbleprop. Nose is cranberries, woody oak, and very light funkiness. Cranberry gold with a small off white head. Flavor is cranberries, malty sweetness, and a tiny bit of bitter. Too sweet IMHO!
