From First Choice Liquor in Waurn Ponds. Drunk the day of purchase in November 2023.
L: I dropped the can, and it spurted out of a small crack, artery-like, before I poured it. Accordingly, it came out with a massive white head and then went relatively uncarbonated due to the near-explosive decompression in the can... The beer itself is a deep mahogany/scarlet colour, and the head, large as it was, was off-white.
S: Rich, dark malt; purple grape skins and juice, slight metallic note.
T: Rich and sweet, reminding me again of purple grape skin. Some harsh burnt malt notes linger - not unpleasantly - and there's a tangy, long finish.
M: It was hard to judge as it lost carbonation so quickly after my treatment, but it seemed ok for the beer.
O: The burnt malt note paired well with the grape notes I pulled from the beer. I hadn't planned to drink this one just yet, but since my clumsiness forced me to, I am glad I did.
Cheers!
