On tap at Canton location. Pours a dark ruby with small off white head that lasts. The aroma is strong blackberry, oak, cherry. Thin body, berry, cherry, light acidity, very tart, enjoyed this.

Tap at Copenhagen Beer Festival in Boston (9-24-2016) showing cloudy raspberry with white foam lacing around the edges. The nose shows tart notes of blueberry and dark plums. The palate is moderately carbonated and light bodied. Dark fruit/red wine forward flavors of blackberries, plums, and light blueberries like a fine Cabernet Sauvignon. Highly tart with a big bready maltiness on the linger.

Much thanks to Kermis! 750 ml. bottle sampled. Trillium’s first sour beer, interesting. Overall this is good, lots of fruit & basically tastes like a sour richly fruity sorbet, lemon sourness but it does lack complexity & funk. It would have been better if it had some of those things. Good but I expected complexity a bit too much initially but it really grew on me. Pours very hazy red fruit. Nose is straightforward vinegar, puckering with lots of blackberry, lots of fruit, red fruits, pits. Taste is sour blackberry sorbet, lemon, sour sorbet, red fruits, tannins, sour lemon sorbet, straightforward, no funk. Sour lemon sorbet body.

Bottle shared. Very hazy red with a medium pink head. Aroma of tart dark fruits, lactic, juicy blackberry. Flavour is moderate to heavy sour. Light medium bodied with soft carbonation. Fairly tasty but one dimensional.

Thanks Clark for sharing this 750ML bottle.
A - This is a beautiful blood red color with a small head that fades slowly.
S - The aroma is very good. Whoa. So much fruit juice, light tannic acidity, wine barrel. Really impressive.
T - Well, there is a lot of vinegar here...whoa, to the finish holy crap a lot of vinegar. There’s also a bit of sulphur lingering at the finish. The beer up front has a lot of berry quality but holy vinegar bomb.
M - Thin and oily, a bit of saison elements here
O - Decent but like every American Wild, it’s too acidic in my opinion.
