Sampled at a DC Gathering pours a deep, oily purple with no head. Chile in the nose, odd dragonfruit, cherry, raisin, earthy sweetness. Flavor is funny, sweet with honey but tart with raisin and cherry and star fruit, pepper too. Boozy and peppery on the finish. Interesting.

375ml bottle. Pours red in colour with no head. Nose of honey, spice, chocolate, warming. Flavour is sweet juicy, cherry, fruity, honey, red wine, with chocolate notes and a wave of hot chilli heat. Oily mouthfeel, medium bodied, low carbonation, dry & warm finish with hints of nutty peanut butter. Interesting, very sippable.
