On tap at High Water, pours a clear bright amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out some red wine barrels, gentle bugs, and some tart red berries. Flavour is tart and oaky, with lots of red wine barrels, oak, red berries, and moderate balsamic. Vinous, tart, and acidic in good balance. Far from a world class example of the style, but it's very competently done. Solid.
