Can, $2 from vintage. Was hoping it wasn't dark purple and its not, just a tinge of off pink on pale. Hazy with a foamy creamy head. Smell is big beefy blackberries perfume for a nose, evolves to a milder fruity berry perfume of course. This better be good because I just had a pint of fresh blackberries for lunch. Taste is a dull brew with very little carbonation. Not as sickening sweet or cloying as I was anticipating. Directly out of the can it has better carbonation. Yes, dull fruit, typical dull fruitbeer feel. Probably less of a shandy and more like a fruit beer. Certainly nothing like the fresh berries I just had for lunch. Is anybody else getting tired of these variations on traveler?

12 oz can. Cloudy orange-peach color with a large white head and great retention. Spotty lacing. Berry nose. Semi-flat, slick mouthfeel. Soft blackberry and cranberry flavors on a generic wheat base. Easy drinking, nothing special.

Pours a slightly pink washed straw from a tap. Big berry aroma, similar flavor with a wheat finish. Just a little much, there’s no nuance, it’s almost a flavored malt beverage rather than a crafted beer. Just throw some sugar in it to get college kids drinking and wait for the returns. Meh.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a reddish plum color with a medium sized foamy pink-white head that left good lacing. The aroma was strong sweet artificial blackberry, yeast and mustiness. The flavor was musty and yeasty with cracker and artificial blackberry. Long finish. Medium body. Decent.
