Beet Ale. Made with real Detroit Beets and coriander.
Yes, the color is natural. Made with real Detroit Beets and coriander, this brew is mildly tart at first and then earthy.

Pours lightly hazy magenta with a one-inch, rocky, off-white head. After a minute the head falls, leaving sticky lace and a thick ring on a Cisco pint glass. One column of rapid carbonation.
The aroma has a light funkiness, as one might expect from a Gose. It is reminiscent of wet socks. There is something herbal, possibly coriander. Sweetness is obvious.
After the first few sips, I am still uncertain what the base style is, however it is clearly not a Gose. Astringency is strong from beginning to end. I don't detect any beet or coriander flavors. Either warmth or acclimation is helping. The finish is long, bitter, and astringent. Maybe the base beer was a Cream Ale.
The thin body and texture is overwhelmed by spritzy carbonation. Imagine seltzer. Alcohol is mild and a little less than expected.
This is a decent beer, however it is one and done without regrets. Sometimes the experience of something new outweighs the enjoyment of the thing itself.
