Had this on tap on release day & I think I popped a bottle five years back, but I otherwise have little recollection of the flavor profile till this latest share.
Drove to George's house because Sam kept bugging him to trade for this bottle. Had to pick up some Trader Joe's dog treats on the way there to sweeten the pot of course. Sam loves treats.
Surprisingly clear, raspberry iced tea. Shared with Sam, Shawn, Joe. We're all still quite sober.
Bright, jammy, complex raspberry tea, very slight complimentary oxidation, snappy, not too tart, well-aged, lemon, thin body but flavor sticks on the palette, berry lingers in the finish. Fruit is less jammy. Clean bottling, zero funk. Oxidation hasn't become a negative, yet.
It thinned out but still great bubbles.
Delicious, but not world class anymore.

Bottle shared by SaltyGrog: Poured a ruby with a bubble white head. Aroma berry, dusty, pungent. Taste is tangy tart, black raspberry is very present, acidic, lingers on the palate.
gave a cheers!

Bottled. Color is...unclear due to the bottle. But guesstimate orangey yellow. Strong hops citrus hit and malts. Pretty decent.

Bottled. Poured a mildly cloudy gold but less gold than I’d expect. Grassy with some hops to finish, more pilsnery than i expected.

Draught. Bit of a watery pour and consistency. Nutmeg etc and all you’d expect in a pumpkin ale.

Bottled, of course. Poured a very dark brown to black with medium head. Caramel, dark fruit, licorice, yet somewhat subtle, some yeast etc. Not too much carbonation and heavy yet nonobtrusive mouthfeel. Sweeter rather than bitter A good one and alco wasn’t too apparent despite level.

Draft @ blind tiger. Pours dark with medium head. Not super attractive or memorable but very drinkable.

Bottle. Pours an ambery brown, definte hops but not overpowering. A pretty good example of the style.
