May 7, 2008 Bottle. Pours a nice red/orange color with a small mostly white head. Aroma reminds me of a cider with certain hints of fruit. Flavor is good but a bit odd. Citrusy and fruity, the fruit I can taste seems to be a raspberry, which must come from the combo of blueberries and blackberries. There is some nice sourness to the beer like a lambic. Finish has just the tiniest bit of hops with some fruity malitness. Not bad at all.

May 6, 2008 Bomber. Bold, red color with a sugary sweet nose and upfront fruity taste. The carbonation and mouthfeel is very champagne-like. Tastes like a cross between one of those sweet malt beverage things you can get for $4 per six pack and a nice beer...kinda ruining the nice beer. The more of this I drank, though, the more I liked it as the sweetness settled down and it came across more refreshing. Certainly an unusual and nice change of pace beer, but it’s really too sweet for me, and WAY too expensive for something like this.

May 4, 2008 Strong tart cherry flavor. Not that complex, dominant fruit flavor. Tastes like some kriek lambics. Dry alcoholic finish. Not especially drinkable, but decent for a few sips. Interesting, but not that great.

May 4, 2008 On tap at the Oldsmar Tap House (Florida). When first poured from a distance, it did appear slightly purple with a purplish head, but on closer inspection (that is, when it arrived in front of me), it more closely resembled a deep amber, slightly dark orange color with a thick, fluffy white-tan head. Aroma is of deep ripe berries, hints of banana and some faint spiciness. Taste is also strongly of ripe berries with hints of citrus. Very interesting beer that reminds me of some of the Belgian lambic and kriek beers we have tried.

May 4, 2008 I thought this was a very fine beer. It was served cold from a 750ml bottle. The color wasn’t exactly "deep purple" with a "pink head," but more amber with an off-white head. Good lacing. The aroma was hugely infused with the berries, and I thought I smelled some apple too but I might be retarded. The taste reflected the aroma, It reminded me of Festina Lente. Malty and fruity and just a great overall beer that is easy to drink. Nice warming finish thanks to the alcohol. Would highly recommend.

May 3, 2008 I’m not too much on fruit beers, but this is one of the better fruit beers that i have had. Its a bit tart, but has a flavorful aroma.
