Dark purple body with a pink head. Jammy raspberries. Lots of rich blackberry tartness. Fruit overload! But nice medium acetic acidity with a slight red vinous character. Raspberries follow through on the end, nice dryness, plenty of carbonation.

A dark garnet body, not quite purple, opaquely rests underneath a thick pale red foam head with lightly wavy ridges.
This has a surprisingly good balance. It's not too acidic, and handily delivers a surprisingly full blueberry-like expression, and even a little blackberry, as the black and red raspberry combine with the lightly toasty malt and/or oak.
A mild woody funk arises as it warms, while it also becomes juicier and smoother the further down the bottle you go. There is a little more acidity in the exhale, but at the same time I'm getting Fruit Roll-Ups and Gusher vibes.
The medium body has a filling carbonation and finishes tingly semi-dry.
