From a 16oz can, dated 09/25/20. Served in a tulip.
Pours opaque plum colored with a finger-plus of surprisingly long lasting pink foam. A fizzy cap, a creamy collar, and a tattered curtain of thin, slippery lacing.
Fairly subdued aroma of tart berry and whipped cream.
Taste is initially predominantly blueberry juice with the tart, underripe blackberry only becoming evident at the back end. Juice-like; barely even tart. There’s a shortcake quality, right down to the buttered biscuit and whipped cream.
Feel is smooth, mouth coating and creamy, medium-hefty bodied relative to the style with fine, aggressive carbonation.
Overall, a refreshing, dessert-like can of juice. So far as I know, there is no lactose in this beer? but I note that I’ve used either ‘cream’ or ‘creamy’ to describe every aspect: look, smell, taste and feel.
