Comes with a juicy, nearly opaque, red color and almost no head. Nose is fruity, red currant, raspberries and hints of strawberry. Taste is quite sour, less fruity as the nose. Dry-sour fi ish.

16 oz can from Tavour, 1/11/20. Pours a reddish color with a small, bubbly head. Big, fruity, tart, raspberry aroma and flavor. Getting a lot more of the raspberry than the passion fruit, especially in the aroma, which is all raspberry. Other tart fruitiness comes through in the flavor, but the raspberry is still predominant by far. Drinks a little sweet, a little tart, and pretty good. Maybe a touch too one note, but that note is well executed. Good stuff. 8/3/7/4/15

473ml can. Hazy, deep purple colour with small, creamy, fading, white head. Full-blown raspberry aroma with sweet-ish fruit, tart-ish fruit acidic and earthy, leafy aspects. whiffs of passion fruit every now and then. Taste is dry, tart-ish, fruity, fruit acidic, minimally leafy and sweet-ish pulpy notes of raspberry, a touch of passion fruit, some citric acid. Minimally mushy texture, slightly astringent palate, lingering dry, tart-ish, fruity finish. Quite intense fruitiness, good balance, refreshing - good!

Pours dark, redpink, small white head. Smell is passion fruit, bit red fruits ( raspberry ). Juicy. Taste is full, tart, lactic acid, very fruity, intense raspberry, passion fruits are less intense here. Sourness is nice, perfectly balanced. Bit simple perhaps, but the beer as a total works very well. My favorite of the 2 beers they made for the band.

Lots of sharp raspberry sourness and some passion fruit. Quite sour. Pours murky pink with decent head and lacing. Acidic finish with some of that raspberry bitterness. Tap at Gilly's.

Poured a very hazy light violet ruby red color with a very small, slightly off-white head. Aroma was like straight raspberry puree. Light tart fruit raspberry and tart passion fruit. Nice stuff.
