A: Fairly opaque. Vibrant purple. very effervescent. Looks like blackberry soda.

S: Rich fruit like plums. Hints of tobacco

T: Whooaaa. Intensely dry, intensely sour. Not as much barrel as the other Dots I've tried but it's there. Tons and tons of blackberry. Crisp and nice effervescence. Man, it's like green strawberries coated with black pepper.

O: It's so damn sour, but still thirst quenching. I'll be drinking this bottle for a few hours. Really really good. How much longer is HOF and Foam going to stay quasi available?
