Poured from the tap. Murky purple copper with off white head. Some guava on the taste, a rather unassuming nose. Average, but better than expected.

Original review text: Poured from the tap. Muddy dull purple with small white head. Lacto and guava, better than expected. This particular bartender at Elwood’s said, “I usually combine it with a cider, which we don’t have on tap right now.” Okay.

Muddy red body with little foam, muddy tartness and sweet guava on the nose. flavour is murky guava with some slight tartness, okay carbonation, slightly tinny. Boring but adequate.

Drank from the bottle like a hobo so didn't see it but the pic on Instagram is like purple smoothie. It's got a lot going on - a bit of tartness, fairly thick with the oats and puree, lots of guava. It tastes basically like a guava saison. Not bad.
