This beer is just a gorgeous hue, but the head fades nearly instantaneously.

The nose is very mild--I get a bit of brett funk and a tiny bit of the cranberries, but mostly a little bit of oak.

The taste is very nice, but there's just not enough of it. Cranberries hit first, making you believe the beer is sweeter than it actually is. You wouldn't be fooled for long though as the sour hits like a ton of bricks. Fades (too quickly) to mild brett funk with oak bringing up the tail end. It's a wild ride, but sadly, it's over way to quickly.

Effervescent and moderately tart. The prickle fades fast though.

Overall: I really want to like this beer, but it's challenging. It's too thin to savor as I would like. It could be a quaffable summer beer--except for the price and the intensity of the flavor (for the brief time it's there). Ultimately, it's a bit too thin to really sell me.

Very watery- oddly so. Mildly tart, with some cranberry taste. Oak. Kind of boring, flavour that is there is pretty mediocre. Decent, but nothing I would revisit.
