The only thing I can say about this abomination is that it has a distinct aroma of cassis. Everyone-especially wine drinkers wants to know-at some time or other what cassis smells like. Yes, you can pick this up in many cabernets. Perhaps I’ll keep a bottle on hand for training purposes. Other than this the beer is thick, goopy and sickeningly sweet. A sour pickle barrel component chimes in trying to balance the sweet and pretend it is a sour. But the whole thing is just a mess and it fails all across the board. This thing only wants to be a skanky fruit juice. And it pulls this off with alacrity. Could not get past a sip-yuck!
