Review from notes, Sample at The Microbrew Invitational 6/3/2017
Looks like cloudy pink grapefruit juice. Tart berries with an overwhelming peach aroma and flavor. Bright tartness. Pretty damn tasty sour ale.

750ml growler.
Pours light ruby with a purple hue and a faintly pink, short-lived head. Aromatics are a blend of ripe berries and unripe peaches. Light bodied with minimal carbonation. A bit slick. A bracing tartness starts the palate with bright fruit stepping forward. Hard to pick out the peaches or blackberries but the fruit component is tasty regardless. Finishes with a lingering sourness and a berry-like fruitiness.
The beer is heavy on sourness for the style and could use more of both fruits as well as a higher carbonation level.
