Bright red, nice stone fruit aroma, balanced tartness, light sweetness, big bright fruit. Quite good, the fruit elevating this.

Flight at The Magnet. Pours hazy pinkish. Aroma is very fruity, mostly blood orange and small stone fruit. Flavour is sour in good proportion with fruit notes of blood orange and nectarines. Some woody dryness and a bit of tannic bitterness on the finish. Excellent.

5oz. Appearance: hazy dirty peach with a white head. Aroma: nice stone fruits with some bugs and little sweetness. Taste: along the same lines, nice fruity character, low to moderate acidity. Overall: nice one.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a hazy dark pinkish red with a small pink head. Aroma is rich, with intense stone fruits, tons of juiciness, and a great mixed culture character. Flavour is super juicy and expressive, with a prettt incredible pluot and nectarine character — damn, that's impressive — ungirded by a nice mixed culture, some oak, and a dry, yet juicy, tannic finish. Really great.

Nectarines and pluots blended deliciously, like tart sweet candy but not thick jammy overwhelmingness, just nice grisette stone fruit vibes.
