Our first Valentine’s Day Beer, V is 6.5% abv and fermented with 130 lbs of raspberry and cacao nibs roasted by the French Broad Chocolate Lounge. It is truly a beer for the romantic with interwoven aromas of raspberry and chocolate. With a crisp and dry finish, this fruit forward beer is not overly sweet. Perfect for a dessert pairing.

Draft at Salud. Dark brown color, thin light beige head. Aroma of chocolate covered raspberries. Taste starts sweet then earthy cocoa powder and fruit. Saison must be hiding.

Keg at the brewpub, 17/02/15. Very dark mahogany brown with a decent tan covering. Nose is bitter fruit, light spice, red berry, wooded notes, nutty aroma, light chocolate. Taste comprises rich red berry vibes, light toffee, funk, spice, damp hay, light cocoa rub. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent dark saison.
