Can purchased from Iron Tug Brewing in Rochester, NY.
This one pours a dark-ish thick looking purple color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells quite minty, with some black currant and berry, and a touch of lemony acidity.
This is intriguing, and a very unique combination. Unfortunately, only 2-3 oz or so are tolerable, as the mint is just way too strong here. Some sort of sweet component would have helped balance the mint out - maybe black currant, mint, and chocolate, or black currant, mint and vanilla - just spitballing here. It's a very interesting combo, but the mint just dominates the more you drink it.
This is light bodied, clean, with a fairly light acidity to it.
This was intriguing and very fun to try, but suffered on drinkability as the can went along.
