Pint can pours with a mahogany colored body that has deep ruby red hues and supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma comes across a bit on the cherry and plum ester side but then quickly reveals inviting reduced sugars and malts. The taste is sweet and modestly cherry and plum to start. It then flows into sweet malts and a mild sense of molasses as it gets a tad mineral toffee like toward the finish. These notes might benefit from further cellar time to improve the blending and melding of the experience into a sum greater than the parts. I dig it though. Thanks GodOfThunder for this fun beer.

Dullish. No head. There's a light fruitiness, a mellow body. It's not bad, but it doesn't come together. Lacks richness and fruitiness.

Poured from 473mL can. Medium brown with minimal beige head. Mild phenolic band aid note, watery, meh.

16 oz. can, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma is strange, with underripe red berries, light caramel, and some strange floral notes. Flavour is very light, with dry bready malt, underripe berries, and a touch of molasses. Very light, lacking any malt depth. Nothing offensive, just very lacklustre.
