Poured a very bright red color, totally opaque, with a small, wispy head. Aroma was a lot of blueberry, light pomegranate. Tart, sharp aroma. Smoother than I expected. Mild blueberry.

Poured a very hazy light violet ruby red color with a very small, slightly off-white head. Aroma was like straight raspberry puree. Light tart fruit raspberry and tart passion fruit. Nice stuff.

Poured a very hazy yellow orange color, kind of no-pulp orange juice color with a very small off-white head. Aroma was light floral notes, super juicy citrus. Flavor was not as fruity as expected, light bitterness, some mild grain. Pleasant.

16oz can pours a dark gold, clear, with some sticky white head. Nose has malt and corn, dough and yeast, at the very end the grassy and lemony hops start to resonate. Flavor has the bitterness, more grapefruit now, some soap, a little pine. Reads C hop all the way. Flavor also has simple grist and grain, cracker. Finishes dry and way more bitter than I would have imagined. Drinkable.
