What the brewers say

“Brewed with eight heroic ingredients: prickly pear, mango, boysenberry, blackberry, raspberry, elderberry, kiwi juices, toasted quinoa....”

What our panel thought

“Light earthy prickly pear, fruit punch. Hints of berry, wine grapes, watermelon, kiwi, savory spices. Good acid balance, not overly assertive. Fruit-stand flavors abound but are muddled. Some white pepper floats in and out. Balanced; finishes with a citrus note and light acidity.”

What our editors thought

“Sometimes, a laundry list of ingredients can cohere into a new thing that’s so compelling it puts any questions to rest. In this case, we’re left scratching our heads.”
