Delicious! Juicy/sour/tart/tangy raspberry/cranberry/skin/seed; red/green/crisp apples/fruit peel/white sugar/lt pepper. Semisweet/med carb. Lingering acid/tang/tannic drying. No pucker. Pretty refreshing. Great fruit complexity/balance. Very impressive.

Tap @ Mikkeller and Friends. Pours deep dark ruby red. Aromas of cherry soap, sweet honey, some light floral notes, light cherry tartness. Taste is slightly hoppy but mostly sour cherries, honey, soap. Soapiness is pretty offputting, sadly.
