Hazy ruby orange, 1 cm white microbubbles head, full ring and light surface skiff. No sediment or floaties.
Strong cherry-raspberry aroma.
Cherry, tart raspberry, light funk.
Tangy bitterness, berry and light leather aftertaste linger.
Interesting with developing complex flavors.

Appearance: Pours a red raspberry tinged pink lemonade color with a one finger head that quickly fades to a ringlet; spotty lacing
Smell: Very funky, with cherry and, to a lesser extent, red raspberry tones
Taste: Acetic cherry flavors, at the outset with both a growing tart character as well as a more subtle red raspberry tone; oaky and funky, in the middle, with a lot of acidity in the finish
Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation; puckery
Overall: I never had the chance to taste this when it was brewed for the AWAS 2017 series but I can see why Fonta Flora brought this back for a reprise; this is a serious fruited sour for those who love the funk
