Rafters: Black Raspberry
Afterthought Brewing Company

This one look beautiful in the glass. Almost like a dark red wine with a foam head. It was tart but not sour which was good. There was a really nice black raspberry flavor to it but it was not overly sweet but it had enough sweetness to balance out the tartness.

 

Beautiful purple body with magenta foam head that settles into a ring. Barrel funk lifts up the black raspberries, oak and slight brett and grass in the nose. Airy and light. Taste is a little more heavy handed with the black raspberry becoming more tart, funk, brett and oak all stronger potency than in the nose. Has notes of supporting blueberry and other berries. Slightly acidic in a fruity way in the finish. Feel is dark but not heavy in fact light and refined, lightly tart, oaky, and has a kiss of acidity and funk textures. Fantastic
