3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
train bottle rating. dark pour with a cocoa-colored foam of a head. young oak nose is moderatley tannin-heavy with sweet port / sherry malt character and moderately strong alcohol. mild roast and chicory seem muted by both sharp wine barrel and alcohol. green coffee bean is present and almost becomes more of a bell pepper note with time. vinous and oily texture; medium body; heavy warmth of alcohol. frothy natural carbonation is both pleasant in it’s release of black pepper and flint-like phenols, and a bit brash and mineral-heavy when warmer. ink, soy sauce and licorice spice malt develop over the life of the glass. overall a noble effort and better than I expect when I see wine barrel imperial stout.

25cl bottle courtesy of and shared with _angst_ batch #300.
Noire/brune foncée, col crémeux café au lait.
Arôme donne un bon côté vin rouge, bouquet fruité sur une note de barrique avec un bon profile malté.
En bouche, palais réchauffant, vin rouge, boisé/chêne, le tout est sec, caramel et chocolaté sur des notes expresso/torréfié, en se réchauffant le vin rouge devient plus présent.
Je n’avais pas idée que la Suède produisait du vin rouge, maintenant cela est fait.
