Sample at What The Funk!? on 10/04/2017. Darkest brown color with a medium tan head that diminishes gradually to a film. Small patches of lacing. Aroma of oak, dark fruit and yeast. Medium body with flavors of black cherry, oak, earthy yeast and malt. The finish is mildly sour with a cherry aftertaste. Good beer overall.

At EurHop Fest 2017, Rome-Italy. Black pour, brown lacing only. Nose: sweet coffe upfront with a alcohol following. Mouth: rather confusing imo, too much funky which honestly and in my personal perception do not match with the cherry spirit finish. Just solid
