The one with cherries added. Pours a reddish black, with just a bit of foam. Smells a bit roasty, some sweetness and some sourness. Mouthfeel is a bit thin, but creamy. Taste is lightly sour, mostly from the wood, some chocolate, and cherries. Great fun.

Small dark beige head over near-black beer. Very vinous nose, with dark chocolate, wood, melanoidins, bit of lactic acid. Dark chocolate with dried (red) fruit. Roasted, fortified wine, chocolate, liquorice. Light sourishness, fruity. Again chocolate with red fruit - Sachertorte ohne Sahne? Medium bodied, quite slick; medium carbonation. The bottle calls itself stout. It's both - stout and sour. And good;

Pours almost black from the bottle. Dark tan head, foamy, fizzy, obviously the product of quite a lot of carbonation. It soon fizzes away. Aroma is oak, cherry cough drop, chocolate, burnt. Taste sour with sweet undertones that become more prominent at the finish. Body is medium with an aggressive carbonation up front that rapidly slackens. Overall a good stout/sour ale hybrid that does not shy away from going off the beaten track.
