On tap at GTMW 2017. Pours a hazy peach grapefruit with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has notes of tart cherry, a bit of grapefruit and sweet grains underlying. Flavor has a good amount of tart cherry, a bit of sweetness and a touch of oak backing.

12oz bottle. Unfiltered cherry red-amber body. Not much of a head. Cherry aspirin aroma. Pleasant juicy cherry tones. Not as much depth as most sour cherry beers, but also thankfully no acetone brutality either. A pretty decent offering. Not world class by any means, but tasty enough.

12 oz bottle. Pours a cloudy pink-hued amber with a white head. Light cherry hint of an aroma. Flavor is tart and sweet cherry with citric/acetic sourness at the start and finish. I wasn’t into it at first, but it turned out pretty well.
