A: The beer is rather hazy light amber in color. It poured with a half finger high white head that quickly settled down, leaving a narrow collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of sour red currants are present in the nose along with notes of hibiscus.
T: The taste follows the smell and is rather sour, except that the flavors of hibiscus are stronger and more on par with those of the red currants.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and very tart on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is tart and sour and will definitely pucker up your mouth. I thought it had a nice amount of flavors from the red currants and and hibiscus.

16oz can into a pint glass. Canned 10/30/20, so a little over 3 months old.

Looks okay in the glass, pinkish orange body. Small white head quickly shrinks to a ring, no lacing.

Smells tart & slightly funky.

On tasting, sour, tart, a touch of funk, extremely drying.

Mouth medium, finish the same dry sour tartness.

Overall, just not for me.
