Can. Pours a clear light pink with visible carbonation but no head whatsoever. Aroma has a very earthy dry honey note with a bit of plastic and light raspberry underlying. Flavor has lots of dry honey and some bitter raspberry as well as a touch of plastic.

Apple and honey nose, vague floral hints, not really berry-like. Rose colored, slight effervescent. Spritzy which detracts in this instance. Raspberry initially with a surge of honey at midpalate. Oddly bready in the finish. NIce transitions, but drinks like a wine cooler and doesn’t taste all that great.
