Cranberry colored pour, small white head, nice lacing. Soft fruity aroma, really soft. Raspberry, blueberry, floral hibiscus, cranberry, and berry seltzer. Crisp, medium feel, very drinkable. Good fruit forward IPA, taste good but not their best.

On tap
Pours slightly reddish orange
Smell lots of the berries coming out
Taste bitterness up front, a little coconut. The hibiscus Really just seems like for color
Then the fruits are pretty prominent-berries

Medium mouthfeel

Overall quite good I'd have it again and like the flourishes added to the double. It's fruity in a different way than other fruit forward ipas are with the berry conditioning

Pours a deep burnt orange red color.
Blackberry juice, sticky sweet dark fruits, light citrus hops. Medium body and moderate carbonation.

Overall a solid beer; nothing amazing stood out about it but pretty good.

Poured from a 16 oz can into a teku. Canned on ???? Not listed recently sometime in Nov 2016

Appear: pours burnt grapefruit juice pretty cloudy hazy had abt a fingers worth of head nice tight bubbles. Good looking beer

Smell: yeasty which is not what I was expecting. Like a yeasty fruit salad. Def blueberries and blackberries. Maybe some black currants lots of dark fruit but there's also something else kind of floral but almost like dying flowers.

Taste: woah def lots of strawberry and some other dark fruits. Almost no hop bite but instead almost like a gose sour aftertaste I'm left with

Feel: nice and creamy medium full. Solid.

Over I think it misses the mark for me. I think it's not holding up. I got it in a trade first week of dec so my guess is it was brewed mid to late nov and it's not holding up. Maybe it needed to stay cold the whole time. This is not the best tired hands I've had. Actually I would take a hard pass on this beer if presented with it again. I think it's trying to do too much with hibiscus and coconut oil and a bunch of fresh fruit. It's too much not good.
