Poured from the tap. They must have re-released this (same ABV listed). Muddy brownish red with minimal off white head. Lots of really dark cherries, slightly creamy texture without being yogurty, actually enjoy this one.

Excellent custard coloured foam on a soft copper body. Aroma is good orange zest, soft malt, maybe vague pine. Taste is tart pine, orange rind, mellow maltiness, something like a cocktail bitters vibe going on. Ends dry and smooth with good oiliness. Nice, the bitter tonic angle works well with the hops.

Okay cloudy gold body and some modest foam. Aroma is soft pear, some ginger it seems, nothing else. Taste is soft fruitiness and a bit of pilsner hops, ending smooth but not snappy. Not enough pear or pilsner here, but it's drinkable.

Nice deep clear pink body and good foam. Smells of soft raspberry, maybe soft white wine notes, all a little faint though. Taste is soft raspberry and wheat, nothing is prominent though. Smooth at least with nice lingering sweetness. It wouldn't hurt to be more bold here.

Nice deep purple body and some okay foam. Aroma is nice raspberry and blackberry, tart and sweet, not boozy at all. Taste is nice fruitiness, blackberry and raspberry working well, only slight barrel funk. Good carbonation and lingering sweetness. Not bad at all, but could use some more wood funk.

473mL can, pours a deep dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of funky notes, tart cherries, some cherry pie and light lacto. Flavour is along the same lines, with lacto, barnyard funk, and tart cherries. Fairly yogurty, more so than the wild yeast funk. Not really lambic-like, but it's a pleasant wild cherry beer of some sort.

Re-rate: Poured from 750mL bottle. Clear brownish orange with small off white head. This bottle didn't gush. Some yogurt notes on top of my original tasting notes. Feb 12, 2022 (7/3/8/3/15=3.6): Poured from 750mL bottle. Super active, gushing out. Hazy orangey brown with off white head. Blackberry, mild acidity. Better than expected.

Nice murky caramel body and good foam. Good fresh grape aroma, slight malt, seems tasty. Taste is tart grape, slight malt, ending sweet and a bit dry. Kind of not bad, good meld betwixt sweet and sugary.

473 ml can. Pours a clear amber with moderate head. Aromas and flavours of fir and spruce - basically forest floor with a dose of industrial cleaner… A overload on the flavour. A bad novelty.
