Poured from a 16 oz can dated January 5, 2021. Aroma is fairly currant forward with solid berry notes. Light grain notes, a bit of lactic acid and hints of lemon and alcohol. Pours a clear, deep reddish purple with a small pink head that recedes quickly to the edges and disappears. No lacing or legs. Flavor has a light acidity and medium light sweetness with light grain notes. Moderately strong currant notes that have a nice berry character. Light lemon notes and lactic acid. Light alcohol notes and little bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent beer but a bit thin and watery in the finish. Solid currant notes and balanced acidity and sweetness.
