Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.5
Relatively clear pink and copper coloured body with a nice, three to four centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat for a while. Aroma of soured and tart cranberries with a little fruit, some malt and a dose of hay with a touch of yeast towards the end. Light-bodied; Strong tart and soured cranberry flavour at first with a dash of hay, yeast, caster sugar, caramelised sugars and a touch of yeast along with a floral note near the end. Aftertaste is showing cranberry and tart, yet soured fruit like a raspberries and blackberries along with a biting sweet caster sugar flavour. Overall, a pretty sour and tart cranberry flavour with some yeast and dry notes, but a very soft and light beer in terms of malt and pungency, but very tart and fragrant beer that show a great kick that pairs well with a Thanksgiving meal. I sampled this 75 cL wax-sealed bottle purchased from Liqour Outlet Wine Cellars in Boonton, New Jersey on 26-November-2019 for US$13,76 sampled on Thanksgiving Day, 28-November-2019, just about three years after purchase.
