Amber, some haze. Thin head. It's acetic, fruity, good raspberry, woody, this has a pretty solid balance. Honestly, this comes together well. I'd prefer a bit sweeter or more complex but it's good.

Poured from 375mL bottle (2019 vintage) big pop on opening, but no gush. Raspberry flanders red. Nice and mellow for a flanders with background sweetness. I'm happy with this.

375mL bottle, pours a cloudy muddled dark orange amber with a small off-white head. Aroma has plenty of tart raspberries, moderate acidity, oak, and wild yeast -- good cohesion on the nose. Flavour is surprisingly cohesive, with lots of tart raspberries, plenty of acidity, wild yeast, and just enough sugar to balance. No way I could drink a full bottle of this (or even 6 oz), but at this pour, there's some good complexity to it, and the fruit is well-integrated. Very good.

Taster at City Vineyard. Pours a dark, red color, with a small, off-white head. The aroma is bright cherry, black pepper, lime juice, cinnamon, and oak. Sweet and fruity, with a mellow, sharp tartness. Medium body, aggressively acidic, and bready. Beautiful.

Poured from 375mL bottle (2019 vintage; abv listed as 10.1%). Clear salmon orange with extremely quickly dissipating white head (to nothing). Sweet bright cherry (almost Rainier cherry like), mild woodiness, light touch of tartness underlies. It's nice, but could still smooth out the edges.

Can from Brix Bottle Shop in Kalispell, MT. Pours a pitch black color with a beige head and very good retention. Spotty lacing. Very dark roasted malt aroma. Very dark roasted malt flavor to match the aroma, and some very dark chocolate bitterness in the finish. Medium body. Semi-creamy mouthfeel. Overall this is a very mellow imperial stout for 8.8% ABV and 70 IBUs. Not boozy. Easily one of the best imperial stouts I've had.
