Beer is too sour for me. Romans art vinegar blueberries. I thought there was going to be some Sweetness in there but it's fairly dry and the sour dominates everything by far.

(750ml bottle shared @ Nische's tasting, thanks to Niko!) Pours slightly purple-tinged amber to brown with a small off-white head. Notes of heavily tangy and tart berries, blueberries not pronounced per se, slightly bitter berry skin, fruit vinegar, drying wood that's leathery, some nutty toasty quality, soft grassy funk, maybe some lactic acidity in there too. Moderately sour finishing dry and somewhat tannic, a bit dusty, softly fruity, lingering acetic acid. Medium bodied with rather soft carbonation. A little too heavy on the vinegar for me, not too bright on the fruit, I think a bit past its best.

Taster, many thanks to Werckmeister! Aroma of balsamico, leather, overripe fruits, blueberries, red wine, ripe apples. Tastes similar, with moderate funk, some green apples. Medium, slick mouthfeel, with an average carbonation. Finishes quite dry, moderate sour, a bit sweet, leathery, tannic, moderate vinegary, with ripe dark fruits, blueberry, green apple skin. Tasty. Quite on the vinegary side, while not the acidic one, but sweeter, balsamico-like. Otherwise lovely leathery, tannic and ripe fruit notes, very well balanced and smooth to drink. Really interesting, dark Sour. Score: 7 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16

Bottle, danke Roman! Cloudy red-brown, low head. Dry berry-skin aroma, cinnamon, vinegar, a hint fish sauce. Medium body, sour/dry/citric acid, puckering on the palate. Blueberry, light vanilla/wood, super dry, My teeth might have disappeared.
