7.6

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5

2023 batch, draft at source - clear deep purple - deep dark fruit flavors of plum, black cherry - caramelized sugars - moderate spicy yeast phenolics - acidity is a tiny bit sharp on the tail end, but does bring the fruity esters of the yeast out a bit - nice texture - some slight imbalance keeps me from a 4.
