12oz single from New Beer Distros. Still not use to the texture of these wrapped can labels. They make an awful crunchy sound when empty. Pint glass pour. Body is the color of a concentrated cola. Black, with a reddish brown hue. A flat Guinness? Maybe too dark to call it that. Billowy purple head rises & falls from my pint glass. Smells of purple-flavored "drank", blueberry pancake syrup(you know the one that shows up this time of year), lemon, & some oh so faint apples trailing way behind. Taste is so much of grape Jolly Ranchers & apple/grape juice boxes. Syrupy, rich, oh so so sweet & candy tart. Prickly, dying carbonation. Medicinal on the finish. The Mike's Hard Lemonade version of this(if it exists) would be preferable.

Jammy blackberry nose, grape accents. Clear purple. Sweet blackberry and apple. Light body, velvety, moderate carbonation.

Draft pour at Snallygaster 2017. Poured a clear, but ruby purple color with no real head to speak of. Some light tart notes, apple, dry apple and blueberry notes. This one was okay.

Maximum tart, blackberry punch in the throat.

12 oz can. Clear ruby colored pour with a tiny lavender head and poor retention. No lacing. Taste is a mix of very tart green apples and blackberry juice. Dry finish. A little too tart and dry for my liking. 6.0 ABV is well hidden.
