dang this was tasty! perhaps a bit one-note but quite enjoyable none the less.
ours out a beautiful pinkish-salmon color. flavors are crisp and tart, sour cherries and seedy underripe raspberries throughout. wheat and a hint of earthy hops. i swore i tasted some salinity to this one too but alas its probably my mind playing tricks on me. well worth trying!!

Can to tulip.
The appearance was a nice looking semi-dark pink grapefruit pulp color with a quickly stifling/falling off little semi-foamy head. No lace.
The aroma was absolutely - through sweet and tart to sour red cherries showing some grassy to slightly lemony qualities.
The flavor brings the sour forth running through the red sour cherries with a tart and sour strength and some grassy and lemony underneath. Mild aftertaste of the sour red cherries with an appropriate tartness.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality to it. Moderate carbonation felt nice. Good ABV. Semi-dry finish claiming enough sour grip but not burdensome.
Overall, pretty damn nice American sour ale really claiming those red cherries authentically.
