Bottle from Sunset Corners. Dark brown, without a whole lot of head. On the nose, it's got a fair bit of raspberry, bit of chocolate, and it seems a bit boozy. Raspberry, chocolatey, and a bit of booze. A bit harsh and husky. and I think the berries come across a bit artificial. I'd say disappointing.

22 oz. bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out cherries upfront, with moderate roast, and a hint of licorice. Flavour is along the same lines, with lightly tart cherries, light roasted malt, some licorice and a touch of earth. Lightly sweet, very fruity with a touch of sweetness on the palate. Nice stuff.

Raspberry and roast like a fire in the bush. Black pour with good head and lacing. Bittersweet and tangy. Great balance. Some creamy caramel. Bottle.

On tap at Cukarikafe. Poured a black body tinged with brown. Interesting aroma, sticky yet fresh raspberry tea notes on full maltiness, nooot quite harmonious, but not far. Quite clean taste, more raspberry tea, solid complex malty body, ends with a light tart touch in the very much finish. Well hidden alcohol. Very good beer but kinda expected more.

Poured from bottle in trade with Dave Chmela, black brown with nice red highlights and a nice chocolate head. Aroma is raspberry, roasted chocolate, coffee. Taste is decadent, rich creamy mouthfeel chocolate and coffee up front with a nice natural raspberry finish. Well done.

Chalumeaux with this 22 oz. bottle share. Very deep brown with some ruby highlights. Aroma is deep roasted malt, mild natural raspberry, coffee grinds. The flavor is rich and deep. Coffee upfront of my palate with a roasted malt center. The Berry is found and is nicely natural. Nice full body / smooth texture.

Keg at Man in The Moon, Stockholm. Pitch black with small beige head. Aroma of frozen raspberries, licorice and tar up front. Mid sweet with full body and rounded, packed mouthfeel. Molasses and asphalt meet frozen raspberries. Mildly warming finish with some syrup. Concentrated but somewhat one dimensional flavours.

Bottle. A- Cherry, chocolate, subtle raspberry. A- Black color, black liquid, tan head. T- Chocolate, cherry, raspberry, mild bitterness. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- The raspberry is there but seems to come off as more of a cherry. Lots of chocolate. Fairly nice, but this is one of those beers that while thought the fruit makes it unique I am not sure it makes it better.
