Pre Borefts Tasting at ABC Beers, Den Haag. Almost opaque dark brown beer,, small pale tan head. Palate is airy and semi dry. Mild fine carbonation. Tangy dark malts. Whisper of dark chocolate. Mild tangy bourbon and a touch of blueberry. Airy finish. Yeah - works well enough!

One of a large number of samples I had at the Extreme Beer Fest in Boston 3/21/32014. Needs more body to stand up to the blueberry.

Bottle thanks to Chris. Pours a very dark brown with small beige head. The aroma is strong blueberry, oak, roast. Medium mouthfeel with a sweet roast, blueberry, wood, really enjoyed this one.
