Never heard of Little House before and never saw a beer that explicitly told me to roll it but should you come across this, you'll want to do that before cracking it open! This was obtained at the ShopRite Liquors in Caldwell late last year and I had gotten to the others in the pack before taking a while to get around to this last can.

No surprise that this poured like thick berry juice, as the thickness of the liquid and grape hue were dead giveaways of what kind of beer this was. Both in body and hue, a much lighter head topped this off as it complemented the liquid nicely. Tons of blueberry, boysenberry, and raspberry were in the nose as this was quite tart and full of fruit patch as the rustic, outdoorsy nature of this was just as present in the palate. The presence of milk sugar, dark cherries, and funk emerged in the taste as this felt like a baked wedding dessert from a can. Plenty juicy, subtly sweet, and puckering in the aftertaste, there was a lot to enjoy here without any overt funk, fruit seeds, or sticky jam that could have taken this down a notch or two.

Dated 9/14 of last year on the can, this held up remarkably well in my basement as it was just as fresh as the cans I had months ago. Love the humor on the label but in all seriousness, you'll want to roll this as much as possible before enjoying - if for no other reason than to enjoy this lovely brew for all that it's worth!
