On draught at Bar Hop. Near opaque brown-black. Small frothy brown head. Aroma - oak tannins, red wine sourness, light coffee/chocolate and alcohol. Taste follows, more tannins, a hint of wine vinegar, slightly boozier, some nougat and molasses sweetness - nice. Light, almost watery - light acidity, weak carbonation, quite woody. Lovely.

Sammy (7035) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 1, 2012

On tap at Amsterdam charity event. Wine colour. Big pinot noir flavour that overwhelms with some IS and chocolate in the finish, not astringent. Some cherry.Big mouthfeel. Flavourful, more of a wine, it can win a wine medal.
