16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Aroma is tart blackberry with raspberries hits of lactic acid. In the flavor, there is no doubt this is a sour ale. The fruit is mildly jammy, but shows a strong tartness throughout with a strong sour finish. Sour Heads will love this one.

Pours dark brown with a thin brown head, some lacing. Aroma of nuts, some malt. Taste has some light malty body, some nutty flavor, nice balance of hops in the mix. Palate has more hops, well blended with a rich grainy finish. Fantastic blend of malty and hoppy.

Undated can, drunk 7/3/23, thanks, AFH. Clear, dark. Medium dark beige head to ring quickly. Beany coffee roast, plums, vanilla and maybe some dark licorice. Not boozey. Fruity as shit. Wow this is one fruity stout. It's not too sweet, at least, with heavy plu, lightly bitter roasted barley and more plum and raisin and elderberry. Lingering bitterness, licorice, vanilla and toast. Weird, but I can get behind the reasonable attenuation and lack of alcohol.

Can from Airforcehops, thanks for sharing. Dark brown with faint garnet edges and a thin off white head. Roasty chocolate brown sugar and molasses with some earth and fruit to counter. Pretty nice.

Taster pour from a can at Rising Pint Brewfest. It's a clear, greenish-yellow with trace sparkle and thin cap of white head with no lacing. Aroma is wheat, coriander. Taste is strong wheat, banana, tart fruit, sweet esters, coriander and grains of paradise. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, decent complexity and taste bests aroma.
