Draft at 8 Degrees Plato. Pours a deep ruby with a full finger and half of pink foam that lingers. Big funky, horseblanket nose with wet hay, barnyard and fallen plum aromas. A bit of farmyard manure aromas as well. Bone dry palate with plum skin and stone fruit flavors. Lingering barnyard And plum with a touch of mineral. Farmy, funky and fresh.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a deep ruby pomegranate to purple with a half finger of foam that dissipates quickly. Big tart cherry aromas with plum, blackberry and boysenberry aromas as it warms. There is also a nice herbal aroma that comes out after a bit...thyme I assume. More cherry skin and flesh on the palate with some light cherry stone, vinegar and slight vinous notes that linger on the palate. A touch of peppercorn on the finish. Quite nice.
