Dark maroon body, mostly clear; no lasting carbonation. Fairly classic smell of brett and horse blanket; dark, red berry notes. Excellent tart berry flavor; raspberry and blackberry with a bit of cherry; jammy. Heavy mouthfeel with a velvety smoothness; acidic; tart juiciness.

This was a mystery beer from Beer It Forward #16. My initial impression based on the looks and smell was some sort of wild ale with raspberry or blackberry. I'd say I wasn't too far off in my guess. In hind sight, I get some of the woody barrel aging qualities. I can't say I picked up mint but the marionberry (blackberry) was quite evident. Overall, a very nice beer.
