Bottle from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours very dark brown/black with ruddy glints and a creamy/foamy dark tan head. Aroma is sweat sox, darkish fruit, darkish malt. Suggestions of prune. Med body. Flavor is chocolate, darkish burnt malt, and a very minimal brett flavor. Might not realize brett, it’s so restrained. However the drink is a good one. Finishes balanced - nearly dry. The malt is maybe a little towards treacle.

Fra flaske hos Mike på Lervig: Aroma og smak av billig, tynn rødvin. Kan det ha vært noe feil? Definitely not my cup of tea, men så er jeg da heller ikke en svoren brett-fan.
