On tap at Garden Path, pours a hazy dark red with a small off-white head. Aroma has tons of jammy red berries, moderate funk, and a touch of acidity. Flavour is on the acidic side, with tons of jammy, acidic, red berries, light funk, and a touch of leather. The berries add quite a bit of acidity, which limits its drinkability. But it’s a well-made beer for sure.

Pale purple. Slight haze. Aroma is a lot of berry. Similar near-bracing acidity as the regular but with berry juiciness. A touch of sweetness up front but gets quite tart. The berry masks some of the complexity.

Draft at Snallygaster 2024. Poured a cloudy, bright crimson red color with a small off-white head. Aroma was big berries. I have no idea what a tayberry, but it's a cross of a raspberry and blackberry, and I kinda see it. Pretty tasty stuff. Fruity sweetness, funky wild yeast. Light tartness, easy to drink. Tasty.
