Wonderful beer. Pink guava and crackery grapefruit. Lime. Some mango. Pinkish yellow hazy pour. Tangy finish. Great balance and rich aroma. I'm a sucker for pink guava. Bottle from Dominion.

750ml bottle pours a transparent purple with a ring of white head. Nose has funk, weirdly green and funky out of the gate, vinous, woodsy too with some savory herbs, lemon juice or grapefruit lurking. Flavor has a lot of grape, some neutral barrel which also helps with some tannins, savory herbs, a little malt lurking, biscuit even, some light balsamic. Finishes fairly full bodied, lightly tart. Very cool.

This is more like it. Smells heavy sour, oaky, currants. Taste is much more subtle and complex, still sour but not overpoweringly so. Lots of fruit, but not in front of everything else. Excellent cleanser, with loads of flavour and great balance.
