Bottle. Dark brown color with no head. Aroma is balsamico, chocolate, roasty, earthy. Taste is the same. Low carbonation. Still an excellent beer.

Vintage 2011, bottled 09/2014. No gusher, just a slight puff. Smells balsamic oaky. Taste is slightly sour, but mostly so much oak. Some red wine, and quite a bit of fruity sweetness. Cherries, strawberries and some more balsamic down the throat. Lovely.

Bottle from Countbeer, thanks! Deep dark brown color. Caramel, red fruit and oak in the aroma. Hint of apple vinegar. Vanilla. Oak, vanilla, caramel, vinous notes and red fruit in the sour but complex flavor. Very well done!
