From bottle at Bar La Lune.
Pours an unclear orange with fine head.
Smell is crisp and tart with notes of raspberries, lime, oak, citrus peel and raspberry jam.
Taste is tart with notes of raspberries, lime, oak, citrus peel and raspberry jam. Sift bitterness and extremely refreshing.
Mouthfeel is medium with effervescent carbonation.
Overall, an outstanding table beer, packing so much flavor into so little ABV.

This one pours a dark pink-ish color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells lightly berry-ish, with lemon, lime, raspberry, and white wine.
This manages to pack in a lot of flavor despite being so low in ABV. It’s lightly jammy, but pleasant tart, with lemony acidity, some oak, and some light wine notes.
This is not super funky or acidic, but very drinkable, with a crisp and clean finish.
I don’t think this necessarily improves on the unfruited regular version of Charlie – but it’s still worth a purchase if you ever see it.
