Sampled at Bad Apple. Pours a clear ruby purple with slight white head that dissipates quickly and completely. Aroma is full of blueberry with a touch of raspberry and underlying honey. Flavor has a very boozy honey and blueberry/raspberry note.

bottle courtesy of thedm and hotstuff at Ft Wayne tasting - Pours clear reddish purple. The aroma is of honey and berries. Duh. The flavor is semi-sweet with nice berry flavors. It leaves a sweet, alcoholic finish and struck me as a little on the watery side. .

750 ml bottle. Sweet, sweet smell like a berry juicebox. Soft red pour that lies very still and saucy. First taste impression is slightly dry and a bit winey. But with each sip, it becomes more sweet and fruity. Those 20% wild berries don’t seem to have been part of fermentation. Gets kind of cloying toward the end. Nice, sweet dessert wine, but not one for sipping with the guys. Had to follow this up with some Hopslam and a Goose IIPA.
