Apr 12, 2004 From the 22 oz. bomber bottle. Explosive overcarbonation! We had to wait awhile with a dinner plate under the bottle for the fountain of foam to subside. Once this could be poured, a pale orange color gave way to a light pink head. Stunning colors! The palate was rough, similar to this brewer's Rye Ales. The dominant flavor was that of grapefruit. Tartness and sourness is bound together by a strong hop bite. If not for the overcarbonation, this would rate high for uniqueness.

Dec 21, 2002 man o man. this was a definite experience to my taste buds. starting with a taster..and finishing about five pints later. i found the cranberry to be uplifting.. not too overpowering.

Sep 17, 2002 Pink color, medium white head. Pilsner style beer that is slightly tart, more like a cider than a beer. Cranberry flavor is pronounced, yet not overpowering. Aftertaste has fruity overtones, yet there is a slight hop bitterness to the beer. The label claims that they use an ale yeast instead of a lager yeast. The fruitiness of the berry melds with the malts and hops very well. Very different beer.

Dec 11, 2000 Not my style, drinkable, if your in to ’Fruity’ beers, a good buy. Tart and crisp, decent malt and some hops, not a hit with me.

Oct 15, 2000 Pretty good beer. The cranberry sours it just a little, but is not overbearing. Not to sweet(like a lot of other fruit beers).
