3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
330 ml swingtop thanks to Santa from Slovakia. Pours a pure black color with a medium deep brown head. A slightly sour lacto nose with light coffee. The flavor is dry cocoa, very noticeable sour cherry, roast, metal, more fruit, earthy dry finish with dark chocolates, tobacco and roast. Quite nice, unusual. The sourness will put off some people, but it’s not a major negative to me. A somewhat slick palate. Very nice.
