16 oz can dated 2/8/24. Purple berry pour under a pinkish head. Certainly picking up berried and lime, but there's still some of the base malt in the nose. Blackberry is up there on the palate, but also with a thin mouthfeel. I know most berries are kind of hard to get strong enough. Also, there's the edge from lime. Which is kind of a conflict. It's OK. But just runs a bit drier than I think I'd like it.
