Draught @ Cascade Barrel House, Portland, OR. Pours deep dark reddish with a pink head. Aroma of tart raspberries, wood, vinegary sourness and oak. Taste is slightly tart, sourish and juicy with loads of raspberries, mild funky earthiness. Finish is sweet, juicy and slightly tart with loads of raspberries, some sourish notes and hints of earthiness. Quite smooth.

Bottle shared at the big Dave tasting at craft beer Co Islington. Many thanks to Scopey for this one. Dark plummy pink coloured pour with a lasting halo of pink head. Aroma is lovely fresh tart raspberry, blackberry, tart, spicy berry. Flavour is composed of of jammy forest fruits, raspberry, tart spicy berry, hint of acid. Palate is spicy sour, citrus high carbonation. Pretty good. Like it a lot. .

Bottle thanks to Bruce for the pick-up. Shared at Craft Beer Co Islington. It pours cloudy deep red with a medium off-white head. The aroma is fresh, juicy, bright, tangy fruits, raspberry, blackberry, creamy, fruit cake and jam. The taste is crisp, bitter, sour, tart raspberry, blackberry, lemon sherbet, decent acidity and some jam with a dry, tart finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Crisp, tart and fruity. A tasty fruit sour!

Craft Islington bottleshare. Thanks to Paul. Hazy cherry red beer, thin pink head. Palate is light, dry and finely crisp. Good raspberry. neither too tart nor too sweet, a little blackberry in there. Light semi dry finish, Somewhat one note, but it;s a nice note.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Paul. Pours murky red with a small, white cream head. Vibrant juicy, pitty raspberry aroma, lightly woody and funky. Light sweet flavor with strong tart raspberry kick, moderate acetic burn, some woody dryness, bitter seeds. Light to medium bodied with spritzy carbonation. Finishes with more tart raspberry, seeds, subtle earth and damp wood. Great beer overall. Nice, fresh and juicy raspberry character.

On tap at Cascade. Ruby with a small head. A pleasant aroma and taste of raspberries and funk. Refreshing and nicely drinkable.
