The eyes betray the senses on this enigmatic beer! Beneath the purple haze are juicy tropical fruit tones of guava that emanate around a silky and round mouthfeel. A snappy tartness cuts through and leaves you wanting more.

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.

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.
