Pale purple. On the palate, wheaty and a bit yeasty. Just a touch of blackcurrant.

Poured from 355mL can. Clear gold with quickly dissipating white head. Straw and grain with a hint of grassy hops. Decent for the style.

Bottle. Murky, peachy colour without much head. On the palate, it's got a nice tartness that doesn't get too sharp. Lots of peach juice taste, too, seems fresh. Somewhere along the way it gets a bit yeasty, so it's not all that refined, but it's got some things going for it in the fruit expression and the rawness has an appeal.

Pours dark blackish brown with very little foam, sugary coffee on the nose and nothing else. Flavour is muddy chunky barley with vegetal hints. Mouthfeel is odd, a bit dry but also a bit wet and kind of empty. This really isn't getting exciting on any angle.

Smells of sweet black currant, maybe vague grains. Has soft foam and a soft clear brownish-red body. Flavour is soft black currant and malt, a little muddy. Mouthfeel is shuffly, shifty, tepid might be the best word. Okay, needs a little more definition.
