5.6

This is my 1000th rating from Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Pours as a deep reddish purple with no head. Smells of berries, grapes, and honey. The flavor is very sweet. There’s a little alcohol heat in the finish, but it’s dominated by very sweet honey with grapes and berries. There’s a little tartness from the fruit. It’s not enough to offset the sugar overload. It’s not that bad, but the sweetness is too much. Wish #1000 was a better one.
