16oz can - shared with friends at Dart Night. Very cool - salty, sure as heck would pair well with some Oysters. Love Redlight beers

Pint can pours with a mahogany colored body that has deep ruby red hues and supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma comes across a bit on the cherry and plum ester side but then quickly reveals inviting reduced sugars and malts. The taste is sweet and modestly cherry and plum to start. It then flows into sweet malts and a mild sense of molasses as it gets a tad mineral toffee like toward the finish. These notes might benefit from further cellar time to improve the blending and melding of the experience into a sum greater than the parts. I dig it though. Thanks GodOfThunder for this fun beer.

Pint can, courtesy of GodOfThunder, thanks Jj, pours with a crystal clear pure gold body that supports a white head of foam that leaves behind some spotty lacing. The aroma offers up inviting biscuit, bread and creamed corn as well as thin notes of pear like fruity esters. The taste delivers thin creamed corn, some modestly sweet bread and the a few crumbs of biscuit like malts. The mouthfeel comes across a little thick and soft where a little sweet note tends to hang around. I'm finding it difficult to pick up the hops where Kölsch in Cologne that was never a problem. Solid US brewed Kölsch.

375mL bottle, pours a cloudy amber with a small white head. Aroma is wonderfully buggy, with musty grape skins, and oak. Flavour is buggy, with lots of grape skins, lots of wild yeast, and some oak. Buggy, vinous and complex. This is excellent.

This is hazy, thin head. It seems fairly tart, with light fruitiness. It's got a nice sweetness, with a white wine character. It's balanced.

Dullish. No head. There's a light fruitiness, a mellow body. It's not bad, but it doesn't come together. Lacks richness and fruitiness.
