Opaque plum sort of colour. Nice beer - has a good balance of juicy berries, gentle acidity and clean malt backbone.

A taster shared with Josh, Matt, Phill, and Ryan during FHF with priceless Rachel's (yup, again!) help in organizing all the mess with glasses. Appearance: almost clear golden with a white head. Aroma: nice bugs with some fruity character. Taste: same. Overall: good.

On tap at The Ale Apothecary, pours a hazy bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma is fairly acidic, with signature AA wild yeast and some earthy funk. Flavour is funky and earthy, with musty citrus skins, farmhouse funk, and horse blanket. Citrusy, funky and earthy. Not all that complex or elegant but it's pleasant.
