Big thanks to rudzud
Very small fizzy head fades almost instantly, very little legs, super murky purple maroon black-raspberry-ice-cream purple color, lots of floaties as well
Nose brings butterscotch and buttery oak, a little toasted popcorn and oak like maybe diacetyl, faint grassy hop, plenty of jammy raspberry and red berry, raspberry butterscotch ice cream and sorbet, touch of tannic seed stem like berry, a bit of a plum skin maybe
Taste brings sweet jammy raspberry, lots of tannic bitter stem seed like, a touch of plum and plum skin, but loads of diacetyl buttered popcorn, I thought was buttery oak but nope, butterscotch and raspberry sorbet, fair acidity and a little sour funk, flemmy finish
Mouth is med to lighter bod, lighter carb, a little slimy and flemmy
Overall a mess, something went wrong in this one.

Received in a trade and shared with JLindros.
A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice hazy plum hue with a thin head that fades to leave light wisps and a thick halo.
S - Big aromas of raspberry butterscotch. Light raspberry sorbet, big big big buttery oak. Some plum skin.
T - Taste is similar to the nose, some raspberry tart notes but just enormous diacetyl notes here. Hot buttered popcorn, toasted oak.
M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, medium bodied, almost slimy.
O - Overall this was an absolute mess of a beer. Diacetyl ruins the beer utterly.
