This beer is a balancing act of character familiar to and inspired by the holiday season yet unique to itself. Well paired with rich food, it is dry and tart with a hint of fruited sweetness from conditioning on cranberry and background spice from a light hopping with aged German Select.

Pours very clear with loads of foamy white head, most of which receded quickly leaving behind a persistent, splotchy cap and nice lacing. Color is a very slightly tinged apple juice. Aroma is tart cranberry with some notes lurking behind it that I can't identify. Whatever I'm picking up, it all works well together. Taste follows, with a really well done blend of light tartness, cranberry and just a little bit of funk. Nothing was heavy handed with this...it's just very well balance, delicate, crisp and quite refreshing. Very good beer.

Pours a cloudy dark gold with slight reddish cast. A large topper of snow white foam takes its time relaxing to a thick cap that lasts. Ladder-like lace legs linger from successive sips and create a pretty pattern that persists.
Mmm, nice medium strength aroma that hits with tart cranberry, which is joined by wonderful citrus notes, and as the aroma recedes from nose the spicy rye shows up with a twist. A nice interplay of sour and tart weave through the bouquet.
Taste is a blast of cranberry tart quickly joined by general over ripe fruit funk notes, grapefruit, and bitter orange, The interplay of rye at the end of the sip and pith bitter, and lingering deep tart notes end things dry and delicious
Very soft on palate, med. carb. quite viscous, very refreshing, silky body, and an excellent finish that is clean as clean gets.
A joy of a beer that is the case of a master creating in the style he does best. The fruit doesn't overpower and is strikingly tasty. Very highly recommended.

This and a few from two roads brewery are my number one beers right now. If you like sours, this is a great one to try. It is just the right amount of sour with a great fruity flavor.

A: The beer is hazy yellow in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that died down, leaving a thin layer covering the surface and a narrow collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of sour cranberries are present in the nose.
T: The taste has a light amount of sourness with notes of cranberries and faint bits of salt.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This is an interesting beer for the holidays. I didn’t get any of the spicy rye, but the aromas and flavors of cranberries where nice and it wasn’t overly sour.
