750ml bottle at share. Light ruby colored pour with a small, airy head. Aroma and taste are straight up raspberry, with the requisite, sour yeasty funk thast goes with the style. A pretty good outing from this brewery, on a very special style. Well done.

Draft at Caffeina. Hazy mustard color, small foamy head. Light citrusy, grapefruit aroma. Taste is subdued grapefruit juice, soft around the edges . Refreshing but run of the mill.

On tap at Barrelhouse Pub & Grill. Clear pale gold, white head. Grains, light malt, cracker.

16oz can from Boise Co-op. Cloudy golden pour, fast receding head. Aroma is sweet, honey, pale malts. Taste is bready, malty with the honey bringing a touch of sweetness and the Buell melon hops adding some light tropical fruit. Smooth, slick. Finished it before I realized. Easy drinker.

Bottle at the brewery. Murky light brown pour. Big pitted fruit and rum aromas and flavors. I pick up the cherries and orange peel. Thick and muddy.

16oz can from Brewers Haven. Medium golden, hazy pour, one finger foamy white head. Grainy, malty aroma with a hint of sweetness. Bready taste, creamy, more light sweet notes and a razor thin bitter edge at the very end. Smooth, velvety.

16oz can from Craft Brewers of Boise. Clear brown pour, flat. Leathery aroma. Taste brings light raisin, prune flavors, mild sweetness. Thin, dry, bland.

OK, I changed my Rating as this beer improves with warmth. Boozy peaty notes with a sweetness from the vanilla. 750ml bottle from brewery. Dark brown pour, tan airy head, leaves tinybring. Aroma is smoky and sweet, possibly a bit too sweet, and plenty of booze. Taste picks up on the sweetness and vanilla to the detriment of the beer. Boozy flavors turn to medicine and acetone. Hard to pick up the bourbon or the peated malts. Lets see if gets better with warmth.
