Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is very berry forward with lots of very jammy raspberry notes. Light herbal skin notes with a touch of leafy notes. Light oak and citrus with medium acidity. Pours a deep purple color with a medium sized, fairly thin, dark pink/light purple head that recedes fairly quickly. No lacing or legs. Flavor is moderately acidic, but less than I was expecting. Some light sweetness with loads of berry notes. Lots of raspberry with moderate tannins and a light leafy, seedy note. Light oak with a touch of citrus. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice Bu with a ton of berry character. Light acidity. So much berry that it kind of obstructs the base beer.

On tap at De Garde Quarterly. Pours a cloudy purple with medium pink head that lasts. The aroma is strong berry, grape, oak. Medium mouth, very jammy, raspberry, grape, vinous, light acidity, really enjoyed this one.

On tap at De Garde, pours a bright dark pinkish red with a huge bright pink head. Aroma brings out loads of jammy pithy raspberries. Flavour is massively jammy and quite pithy, with light tartness and gentle acidity. Super fruity and pithy on the palate. A little red wine barrels in there as well. Excellent stuff.

Draft - Nice and Berry notes. Purple with a thin pink head. Nice Berry notes, touch of sweetness and tartness but no acidic bite as expected. Pretty decent.

On tap at De Garde. Pours a wonderful purple hue with a massive purple pink head. A big fruity nose, just huge sweet raspberries. The flavor is similar, wonderful cascades of sweet ripe berries, wood, sour mellow notes throughout. Very drinkable.
