Secret Machine - Double Raspberry And Blackberry
Dewey Beer Co.

 

 

 

Comparing also to Secret Machine - Blueberry, Blackberry, And Raspberry which for me scored an excellent 4.48.
L 4.5 | S 4.5 | T 4.5 |F 4.25 | O 4.5

L: A deep beet and berry juice opaqueness. It is more filtered and the head was half a finger which faded away pretty quickly and left little to no lace.

S: Smells like berry juice like you might grab from the small pricey glass jars in the health food aisle of a local grocery.

T: This one is more juicy than jammy, a touch more sour as I recall, and did not taste at all like a beer. Great for juice.

F: I almost never say a beer is overly carbonated but I feel this one is. Otherwise weight and mouthfeel match the style.

O: I didn't come in thinking that double meant better and I'm glad my expectations were low. This was good and I am enjoying drinking it, but the above was a great experience so I'll me more wary of future variants. Fine if this style is your absolute go-to.

 

 

This one pours a thick looking blood-red color, with a small head, and not much lacing.

This smells like much Hydra or Joose or Veil Tastees or any of the other pure glööp sours - like heavily concentrated melted fruit smoothie. The raspberry and blackberry meld fairly well together and neither of them stand out.

This tastes a touch oily on the back end, but up front is just pure melted popsicle/melted smoothie/not beer. It's still tasty, but I just have a lot of trouble truly appreciating this. For the "style" it's definitely on point.

This is thick, syrupy, and fairly lightly carbonated, with a good level of carbonation.

As this style goes, Dewey seems to have it nailed down.
