Bottle. This was horrible. A gift from a friend and I thought it might be a good one for Christmas day, but not so. Cranberry juice color, smal head and hardly any bubbles. Aroma is a weak fruity smell. Taste is like beer mixed with red wine. Not so good.

Bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a cloudy dark red with minimal head. Aroma of red wine, welches grape juice, and sweet red fruits. Taste is lightly sweet but not even close to what I thought it would be. Dry red wine, grepe juice and red fruits. Alcohol very well hidden but it does have a warming finish. Medium bodied with a somewhat thin texture. Somewhat fizzy carbonation and a decently long, but abrupt finish. Pretty good. I would gladly drink it again.

Pours berry-brown with a short, light pink head. Raspberry wine aroma. Taste is slightly grainy, red wine, berry. A bit sticky in feel. Hard to believe it’s 9.5%. Drinkable.

Bottle. Red wine and light wheat malt aroma. Purple amber with small head. Light merlot and wheat malt flavor. Not bad for what it is.
