Peachy colour, no head, hazy. Tastes a bit swampy...pepper...weird fruity notes. Not entries sure what they are going for but this didn’t come together.

Murky, reddish-purple. Thin head. Light cassis nose. Light cassis, thin, a bit swampy, ok but there is some improper stuff. Thing is, it’s got potential if they clean it up.

Cask at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Cloudy amber color. Smell of freshly cut veggies (carrot, celery), apples. Not carbonated, a bit dry and astringent upfront, very peppery, light fruit, veggies, more astringency in the final.
Train wreck.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Bright red color, opaque, like beet coloring in cherry yogurt. Too much carbonation, too much attenuation, tannins and astringency aggressively upfront, some berry character lost in this mess.
This is a first try homebrew, not what you’d expect from a pro.
Very bad, thinking how clumsy it is.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a cloudy bright pink with a small white head. Aroma brings out tart acidic black currants, with some herbal, grassy notes. Flavour is very underwhelming, with tart black currants, herbal notes, and some odd mineraly notes. I appreciate the effort but this is way off the mark.
