Bright purple, violet and pink coloured body with almost no head at all - what was there, disipated very quickly and left nothing up there. Aroma of sour kettle malt notes with some light fruits, the faintest hit of brett or lactobilly around the edges with a light grassy and berry-y bite at the end in the nose. Light-bodied; Strong grassy, tart and very fruity bite up front with some wheat, light yeast and breadiness, but the tart fruit and light lactobilly notes show through everything. Aftertaste shows the tart and very fruity notes with a light emphasis on berry and yeastie, dry flavours with some soft alcohol coming through, but is noticeable, along with a soft, grassy and herbal bite from the fruits, still. Overall, a fairly nice, but very dry and lactobilly funked note with some lactose, herbs and definitely fruity flavours shining through, all with some light sweetness, a good fresh wheat and smooth malt profile. Overall, a fairly tart, soured, yeastie and dry beer with some fruit notes, but a lot of flavours and characteristics throughout, but is fairly simplistic, goes down easily and is a worthy finisher. I sampled sixteen ounce can, purchased from Joe Canal's in Lawrenceville, Pennslyvania on 21-October-2018 for US$3,49 sampled at home about a year and a half later on 14-May-2020.

16 ounce can. Murky purple pour topped by a disappating bubbly pink head. Tart berry nose. Big sour fruit flavor. Raspberry, blackberry, blueberry, boysenberry, elderberry, lingonberry, marionberry and juniper berry notes. Sour is as sour does.
