4.9/10 Appearance 5 Aroma 4.5 Flavor 5 Texture 5 Overall 5
Can to becher pint glass.
Appearance: deep muddy to murky rusty brown colored; one finger's worth of foamy head which slid off at a nice pace and left some sly lace
Aroma: centers around some tropical fruits, sweet grass and clean malts
Flavor: decent effort to try to become bittersweet but seems to leave a bit to be desired; definitely a separated sort of "bitter" and the "sweet" at different parts of the consumption; aftertaste seemed weird with more grassy to dead grass
Texture: light to medium bodied, low key carb, somewhat sessionable; finishes dry and dead grass
Overall: not exactly sure what happened here and I'm somewhat glad I'm done with what I have from this brewery, time to move on for me.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark purple color with a thin cap of a little white foamy head which slid off delicately and left a little bit of concave lace
Aroma: blackberries - fleshy, tart, seed-like and semi-sour, not much else, maybe a touch of some yeast
Flavor: sweet and tart through the blackberries; subtle aftertaste of the blackberries
Texture: light to medium bodied; between sessionable and being a sipper; finishes with the blackberries
Overall: I believe you get the picture on this one, if you love blackberries then dive head first into this. I'm a huge fan of blackberries so therefore I dig this one. I believe the brewer did what they wanted to with this.

Aroma: sweet grains, subtle grassiness, biscuity malts
