Can. Poured a deep raspberry juice color. Looks like my mother-in-law's jam, but thinner. Aroma was huge raspberry juice, some cherry skins. Flavor was a very light tartness, with some raspberries. Actually really liked this one. At the December DC Ratebeer tasting.

16oz can pours a hazy, deep purple with a ring of pink head. Nose has the raspberry and some cherry. Flavored seltzer too. Flavor is tart and spritzy. A bit forgettable. Mostly full bodied and tart.

Can from the Packie. Lightly hazy red pink color with a good sized short lived bubbly white head with a slight pink tinge. Raspberry nose and flavor with bits of lemony tartness. Mostly raspberry, sweet tasty.

Can from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Appearance is deeply hazy bright red (Hawaiian Punch--not sure, been a long time) with a few dark floats, attractive sparkle and finger-width pinkish-white creamy foam head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is strong tart (bordering on sour) raspberry and fruit with some sweet offset. Taste is strong, balanced sweet and tart raspberry. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with thin, frothy texture, average carbonation, no hint of alcohol, tartness that grabs the back of the bottom of the mouth and finish as taste. Overall, a well-done sour that stays within my comfort zone of balanced tart and sweet. Pretty to look at, a bit thin, but aroma and flavors are strong and right on the money. Fairly enjoyable for a style I'm not wild about. Not sure I would reach for it over an average NEIPA, but I appreciate the craft.

16 oz. can from the brewery. Nice crimson red. Aroma is raspberry jam and soft lemon acid. The raspberry runs deep in this flavor. Light jammy notes with a mild lingering tartness. Wow! Really nice sour, bold berries.
