On tap at Garden Path, pours a clear amber orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out bright barnyard funk, faded tart cherries, hay, and a touch of leather. Flavour is complex, with tart cherries, deep barnyard funk, some leather, hay, and very gentle acidity. Beautiful funk, nice incorporation of the cherries, and everything is very cohesive. Excellent.

On tap at Garden Path, pours a hazy dark pinkish amber with a medium white head. Aroma is pungent, with intense barnyard funk, leather, and a underripe, tart red berries. Flavour is likewise quite pungent, with intense, tart red berries, big barnyard funk, and some hay. Finishes fairly acidic, funky, tart and fruity. Quite the blend. Works well despite being a tad abrasive. Very good.
