(473ml can from 4th and 7, Toronto) Pours slighlty cloudy dark fuschia with a small whitish head and no lace. Aroma is very fruity and lightly tart with prominent black currant backed by some sweet/sour cherry and a little light creamy sweetness that must be mango but is hard to identify as such. Flavour is also pretty fruity with currant and cherry leading the way, very gentle lactic yogurty acidity, maybe some touches of mango sweetness in there but mostly about the berries, finishing rather dry with lingering currant/cherry and a little subtle skin tannin bitterness, gently mineral but not super-crisp. Light to medium body with soft carbonation. Definitely not an overfruited sour but the fruit is still bright and the package refreshing. nice one.
