A: The beer is clear reddish purple in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high off white head that left lacing on the surface after it died down and a collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderately strong aromas of Cabernet must are present in the nose.
T: The taste has flavors of Concord grape juice and Cabernet must. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is quite unlike other IPAs and seems to be closer to a Fruit and Field Beer.

Pretty dual purple can, brewed red IPA with Cabernet must.....had to give it a go:
‘Canned 9/27/18

Pours a color of dark pink grapefruit juice with lacing that hangs on the edges of the glass.

Smells like berries, very sweet smell.

For a “red IPA”, I was a bit let down as this tastes a lot more like a sour. I tasted some berries, none of that IPA I was looking for. Some sweetness, some mild bitterness but a bit more sour than I expected.

Feels a bit more carbonated , smooth finish. Got this beer more for the wife, hoping to get more Cabernet overtones. NOt quite sure they nailed it but got a few more cans to go.
