16oz can, adhesive label. Stamp date on can bottom is '9/16/2025 #1375 ONE BEER TO RULE THEM ALL'.
Pomegranate/red berry colored body. Hazy for clarity. Long lasting pinkish colored head that evolves to an interrupted cap and a very bubbly ring. No lacing.
Aroma is faint with hops spiking the fruits.
Taste is sweet, tart, perky, and hopped. Sour ripe fruit with residual sweetness. The hops bring a mature attitude to the mix, and provide both spice and an earthy grounding. Tropical wine cocktail vibe. Very long lingering aftertaste.
More than medium mouthfeel. Dense, and with a heavy ending. Dry finish. Supportive carbonation.
Distinctive color and taste; one to sip and savor.

Thank you BartS for this
16 oz can poured into an oversized wine glass
A- A hazy bright red with purple highlights and a two finger pink head.
S- Sour, fruity and hoppy. Getting pomegranate, some passionfruit, touch of blackberries, lime zest, a nice zippiness from the Nelson hops, touch of herbal tea.
T- Sour, pomegranate, blackberries, some passionfruit, citrus, lime zest, mild dankness, Nelson hops, touch of herbal tea.
M- Smooth, medium body.
O- This is interesting sour DIPA, flavors just blend together and a little muddled but not full balanced yet they aren’t fighting with each other, enjoyable and easy to drink.
