Bottled. A pitch black beer with a thin brown head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, alcohol, bourbon, wood, brettanomyces, over ripe grapes, and chocolate. The flavor is sweet with notes of brettanomyces, wood, bourbon, grapes, chocolate, dark fruits, and roasted malt, leading to a dry finish. Huge thanks to madsberg for sharing.

Bottle, 75 cl. Opaque deep dark brown with almost no head. Borbounish, oaky, fruity, almost pruney aroma, Taste is much better and more alive than nose, sweet fruity, vineous red grapey, some tannins, very low carbonation, evident oak. Tart yet somehow smooth finish.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle: Poured a deep black color ale with a small almost non-existent head with zero retention. The beer is indeed flat which I find hard to know if it is by design or just another bottling issue with the brewery. Aroma of bourbon with some vanilla notes is offset by tart and kriek notes which make for a weird mix at the end of the day. Taste is a very weird mix between bourbon/vanilla notes with light roasted malt offset by tart, oak and sour cherries notes. Body is about average with zero carbonation and no apparent alcohol. I can’t say I really enjoyed this one.
