On tap at Bru in Philly, pours cloudy purple color with a small off white head that faded quickly and left basically zero lacing. Extra points for being purple.

Smells of wheat, hay, floral notes and sweet fruit like strawberries and raspberries. Tastes fruity with strawberries, white grapes and raspberries, lime, iced tea, faint notes of dark fruit, sweet malt, herbs, and then lots of flavors that resemble candy like Skittles and gummy fruit. A fun summer beer, perfect for a Saturday afternoon.

Lilac in color and with significant head that settles to just a bit.

Nose is mild lactic acid, mild lemon, and mild berries.

Taste is lactic acid mixed with minor sweetness, berries, minor cherry, and minor lemon.

Mouthful is light and crisp. Carbonation is high. Finish is dry but clean.

A nice surprise. This is a great intro to sours. Not too acidic and balanced by subtle sweetness and nice fruit content. Very drinkable. Very much recommended.

Reviewed from notes. Had on-tap at Pour House in Channelside. Served in a snifter.
NOTE: I have had this from a bottle as well; Notes below are from the on-tap serving.

A: Hazy brownish red. Good visible carbonation but minimal head formation.

S: Tart, wheat malts, lactic acid, and a nondescript berry aroma.

T: Lacto dry and tartness, wheat with mid husky character, lemony lactic acid bite. Some flavors of berries as well (blueberry? raspberry?). Finishes clean and dry.

M: Light body, good carbonation sensation, no alcohol presence to speak of.

O: Not particularly funky at all, and I thought the fruit flavors seemed a little muddy. But refreshing and easy to drink. Good if you're in the right mood.
