Sample at GABF 10/10/2025, thanks to Beer Savant for assistance with note-taking. Clear purple-red color with a thin pinkish-white head that burns away quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Sweet-tart cherry aroma with some yeast and malt in the background. Medium body with flavors of mildly tart cherry, doughy malt and yeast. The finish is fruity with a sweet-tart cherry aftertaste. Decent overall.

On tap in a flight at Thai Me Up, Jackson, WY. Pours opaque, purplish-pink, with a small, pink head. The aroma is sharp cherries, with some vanilla, yogurt, and brown sugar. Sweet and fruity, with a nice, sharp, tart flavor. Medium to heavy body, creamy, thick, and acidic. This is a fun, and very well done, fruit sour.

At Savor 2016. Poured a deep red color with a slight hazy twinge to it. Cherry fruit, some light medicinal notes - not bad, it just reminds me a bit of dark cherry syrup.

On Tap at the 2015 Hoptober Freshtival, Boise ID Murky dark punk. Tons of cherry flavor, a little of that fruit tartness that typically comes with, and a soft carbonation.
