Bottle shared in Hackney - thanks to Danny. Pours rich purplish-brown with. Small, creamy top. Intense aroma, lots of ripe berries, plum, raisins, herbs, cinnamon. Medium to heavy sweet flavour, with liquefied cough drops, cherries, subtle winter you spices. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sugary finish, lots more cherry and ripe berries, more herbs, cinnamon, cough syrup. Fun, in a perverse way.

From old tasting notes. Deep burgundy red color. No head. Fruity, spicy nose. Delicious tart cherry flavor with wonderful soft, spicy undertones. Truly unique and very drinkable. More like a cherry pop than a beer.

Bottle shared at the March THT at Kwartje. Murky dark burgundy pour with a very thin tan head. Notes of sweet cherries, sherry, tons of sugar, spices. Too sweet for my taste, but overall not that bad.

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy, and (intentionally) warm. Pours purple, with a medium pinkish head. Aroma is of cherries, pretty much only that. Body is tendentially light. Taste is sweet, no acidity. Finish is average. Nice experience with a warm weer!
