Things got a little wild with this one on 6/7/2006. Looks like a 12-oz. goblet pour at the Harvard Square location.
Not on their menu, but has been up on the chalkboard for about a week. Initial thumbnail thickness of plume that dies in seconds to a skim; halo of lacing, otherwise, nothing. Golden red hue with some haziness, not a whole lot, and an absolute ton of soda carbonation popping up throughout the pour, like pop rocks in coca cola paging Mikey! Kind of a weak raspberry note on the nose; otherwise, very difficult to pull anything out and overall very dull. Raspberry lime rickey on tongue, with a jumped up carbonation livening things up. As it warms, I grow more fond of it; more earthy notes reveal themselves (chewy garlic and ginger, very light), and the alcohol adds just a touch of bite.
Let it warm first, then quite drinkable.
