From backlog 2012. Appearance of flat cola. Flavour has some warming alcohol and spiciness (ginger?). Sharp, sour wine-like finish.

On tap @ the brewpub. Details: a blend of their Quad, Cherry Brown, Dubbel & Imperial Stout, aged for 12 to 6 months on Pinot Noit & Chardonnay barrels. Dark brown color, no head. Aroma’s: sweet, sour, cherries, vinous (red wine). Flavor is medium sweet&sour. Alcoholfeel is quite strong, body is medium. Finishes with strawberries, slightly dry. As I’m usually not too crazy about sours I was quite surprised to find this very enjoyable.

Draft. Dark mahogony beer with a low tan head. Light caramel and light fruity aroma. Dark fruit and light darker malt flavor with tartness. Medium bodied. Dark fruit and light chocolate lingers with light toffee and light tartness. A little messy.
