On tap at Roc Brewing Company in Rochester, NY.

This one pours a grapefruity orange-ish red, super hazy, basically opaque, with a small head, and no head.

Smells like juice, not beer. There's not much in the way of sourness on the nose, just pure strawberry puree and slightly tart lemon.

I'm not sure I'd be able to tell this was juice vs beer if I wasn't told beforehand. There's no real essence of a wild ale, just a super fruit forward beer, lots of strawberry and lemon peel. As it warms, I get a *teensy* hint of bitter funk, but you gotta search for it.

This has a very juicy mouthfeel, with a normal level of carbonation.

It's hardly beer. I enjoyed it, but I definitely wish for more complexity.
