Barrel aged saison with boysenberries.
Appreciation is a barrel-aged farmhouse ale fermented with boysenberries and our resident funk. After several months in red wine barrels it has taken on a mouth-watering acidity a whiff of the barnyard, and stronger aromas and flavors attributed to the fruit. Appreciation's ruby red color entices welcoming another sip, another clink of glasses with friends, another moment of contentment and contemplation! With gratitude, we humbly offer our appreciation.

Bottle @ home, thanks to bytemesis for sending. Hazy purple appearance with an off white head. A lot of oak, red wine, berries, tannins, vanilla, and vinegar. Fairly sour. The berries taste pretty good but it is pretty acidic and tannic. Fine.

Keg at Beavertown Extravaganza 2017. It pours clear purple - pink with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, musty, juicy, berry, jammy, sugary, sherbet, sour candy, apple skin and funk. The taste is crisp, tart, sweet - sour, sugary, berry skin, vinous, plenty of berry, blackberry, good mouth - pucker, touch of acidity and funk with a dry, sherbet finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Very approachable and quaffable. Rather nice.

Beaverfest Day 1. Keg. Light haze on this red beer, small pink head. Light dry palate, finely crisp. Tangy cherry and a lemon that is not quite acid. Crisp dry finish. Dry but okay.
