Draft at Tied House. A downer to end the flight. Kind of flat, kind of weak. IIPA? Hardly. Clear golden, bright, small head. Barely there aroma, band aid. Taste also kind of medicinal, hops and malts, but seem to be fighting each other. No "topia" about this. A mess.

Bottle from Sacramento Whole Foods. Pours a red berry color with a transient pinkish head. Aroma of acidic/tart red berry. Med body. Flavor is very blackberry; it’s pretty tart. There’s malt, but it doesn’t really interfere with the berry. Good "sour".
