Canned 2/21/22, drunk 4/16/22. Thick, blackberry-cranberry-colored. Pinkish-yellowish head is small, steadily fading to cover/ring. Strong fruit acidity with a good balance between the apple and blackberry. Somewhat punchy lactic acid and lactose, per usual, seems like it would be better without. Almost a mint character on the very end, with little, if any, cinnamon noted, thankfully. No alcohol, flaw. Very sweet, overly tangy and with a borderline syrupy texture. Fruit flavor is fine, though actually on the sweeter side. The beer needs far, far more attenuation. Lactose clashes with the fruit brightness and cinnamon seems out of place on the finish. Kind of a huge mess and way too sweet, regardless. Off to the drain it goes.
