This refreshing Grape Ale presents a vibrant burgundy hue with a delicate reddish foam. The aroma is characterized by the moderate intensity of red grape must, offering scents of dark berries and a subtle, rustic earthiness typical of red varietals. At just 1% ABV, the body is light and effervescent, emphasizing a crisp, sour profile that balances the vinous fruit character. On the palate, the tartness is bright but clean, melding with faint cracker-like malt and zero hop bitterness. The finish is remarkably dry and thirst-quenching, leaving a lingering impression of grape skins and a vinous acidity without any alcohol warmth.
