355mL can. Pours cloudy purple-red with pinkish head. Aroma leans heavily into the red wine grape pomace; some wild yeast. Flavour is slightly tart, predominantly vinous red wine grape, a touch of wild yeast and some woody dryness on the finish. Pretty decent, but seems like the grape pomace dominated rather than complimented the base beer.

May 28, 2025 (7/3/7/3/14=3.4): Poured from 355mL can (thanks Toni CaptainMurphy; canned 31/03/2022). Light gush on opening. Medium light purpley red with small white head. Lots of red wine pomace, green oak, fairly dry, lacks a bit of body. Preferred this fresher when I tried it before. Okay.
Jan 19, 2023 (7/3/8/3/15=3.6): Poured from 355mL can (thanks Chris McD; canned 31/03/2022; overfilled, slight yeast gush). Ruby red with small pink-ish white head. Vinous red wine pomace, mild tartness, very red wine-y with a bit of oak, feint hint of black pepper. Decent.

355mL can, gushes upon opening, pours a deep dark purple-ish pink with a medium pink head. Nose is dominated by the grape pomace, with nary a trace of Flanders Red notes. Flavour is somewhat peppery, with plenty of grape pomace, some black pepper, and a touch of oak. Awkward combo of black pepper and vinous notes. Pleasant enough but a bit clumsy.
