Single from Appalachian. Pint glass @home. Hazy iced tea, frothy brew. Sharp, astringent muscadine & cherry with a little bitter chem. Twangy muscadine, cherry skin, tangerine, yogurt, leafy green, tea, lemon-lime sour, itchy malt, light earth. Candy watermelon finish. Medium low carb, super sharp, plenty of acid, bit of oxidation, sulfites. My teeth hurt.

On tap at MBCC Red Session. Pours a hazy ruby orange with small off white head that lasts. The aroma is berry, earth, funk. Slick body, tart berry, cherry, light funk, very good.

2019 blend shared at our Novi share. Thanks Jon! Pours a deep plum colored purple with a small bit of off-white foam that dissipates. Jammy nose with blackberry, plum and muscat aromas. Medium body with some light tannic notes that play well with the fruit and tartness. Smooth and very drinkable. Lingering plum, muscat, blackberry and mineral flavors. Another homerun from Fonta. --- Beer merged from original tick of Local Snacks (2019) on 09 Dec 2019 at 14:12 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 9 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 9.

Excellent. Sour/tart/tangy cherry/blackberry/plum/lemon/lime/peach/plum/oak/hay/straw/leather/cork. Crisp/drying, no pucker. Tons of raw stone fruits. Not overly lactic. Really impressive. A bit jammy.
