Tap at Mikkeller and Friends. Poured a dark mahogany colour with a broken off white head. The aroma is big fruit and alcohol and I even swear there is a hint of Marmite yeastyness too. The flavour is big rich, fruity, red berries, brandy alcohol. It’s 11%, but the alcohol bitterness doesn’t dominate. A truly superb beer.

On tap at CBC, pours a deep dark mahogany with a big beige head. Aroma of brandy barrels upfront, candied fruits, booze and caramel. Flavour brings out big brandy notes upfront, caramel, deep dark fruits, and candied sugar. Very complex, full of brandy notes and lingering sweetness without cloying. Great stuff.
