Blush pink with a deep tartness and light body. Cherry pie like aroma with undertones of dark fruit.

Poured from a 12.7 oz bottle bought at the brewery.

L - Color is a blend of light gold and pink or lavender. No head, and some chunky sediment that sneaked into the glass despite a careful pour. The lack of head is not unusual in a beer of this style, but it does distract from the appearance a bit for me.

S - Aromas of cherry and wild berry, along with a moderate barnyard funk.

T - Bracing sourness up front with cherry and berry flavors, along with some horse blanket and light grain later in the palate. A nice contrast of sour punch with subtle and layered fruit flavors.

F - Light body and low carbonation. Bitterness is not detectable under the strong sourness The alcohol presence is also not a big factor.

O - This is a strongly sour and ell-executed wild ale that manages to feature fruit aromas and flavors despite a solid tartness and funk.
