Finishes dry and woody. Nicely fruity sweet yet dry. Yeast has some barn flavors especially towards the bottom of the bottle, but overall not that strong; they combine with the wood nicely. I would describe it as more tart than sour. Fairly light carbonation. fonefan (4328), Ulfborg, Denmark Jul 22, 2008 Bottle 75cl.
