Keg at the Black Iris taproom, Notts get together, 07/07/23. Raspberry red with a faded crimson cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is bitter sweet cherries, tangy berry fruits, damp hay, light funk. Taste comprises cherry stones, sharp berries, balsa wood, damp straw, mellow acidic tinge. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light puckering spike. Okay refresher if a little stuck in 3rd gear.
