Tap @ MBCC 2017. Pours deep dark red, still. Aromas of berries. Lots of blueberry jam, some blackberries and raspberries. Strawberries don’t really come through as much as in the original blend. Lots of vanilla, white chocolate, waffles. Taste is super blueberry forward, tannins, light acidity, lots of vanilla, waffles, chocolate, sweet honey in the back. Gahhhh.

(On tap @ MBCC 2017 Yellow Session, Copenhagen) Pours . Notes of intensely concentrated blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, black currant and softer strawberry, jammy, ruby port, figs, vanilla, soft white chocolate, honey sweetness is pretty high and only lightly tart from the berries, lightly warming alcohol. Full, slightly syrupy body is viscous and basically still. Beautiful blend again from Superstition, still would love to try the individual variants but this was on a par with Grand Cru. Berry mead beauty.
