Murky reddish brown, off white head. Tart fruit aroma. Flavour is sour fruit, toasty toffee, something spiced perhaps? And you get the woodiness in the finish. Nice.

330 ml bottle. Pours brown with a bit of red and light head, but quite a bit of solid sediment. Aromas of balsamic vinegar, vinous wood, grapes and wet malts. Flavors follow same with admiral tart berries and cherry skins. A nice Oud Bruin.

On tap @ Ghetto Something. Aroma of caramel, wood, red fruit, yeast and red wine. Pours clear ruby brown color with thin creamy tan-like head and soft visible carbonation. Taste starts with sweet toasted malt and strong barrel note, following is refreshing sour with notes of berries, cherries, red wine and brett. Medium to full body, thick texture and average carbonation in palate. Excellent brew with perfect balance between sweet barrel and sour fruity notes...

Half at Euston Tap. Dark brown, opaque, small tight head, solid lacing all around. Aroma is tart, funky, brett, sweet. Taste leads with the taryness, sweet, with some of the traditional leathery, tobacco notes. Complex.
