Tap at MadFest III, huge thanks to the MS crew for this one. Pours deep purple with pink head. Nose is huuuge blackcurrant, some lactic sourness. Taste is beautiful, slightly sweet, more tart fruits with a long lasting, somewhat sweet, somewhat sour finish. Medium body, light to average carbonation. Tasty stuff.

Tap at Goblet ZG. Purple body, pink head. Dry, oaky blakcurrant aroma. Heaps of blackcurrant in the taste, slightly oaky, slightly salty, smooth then going astringent and lemony, quite full... Not my cup of tea, this tipe of blackcurrant, but generally pretty fine.

Tap @ Brewdog Helsinki. Poured what looks pretty black with a lasting deep pink head. Intense blackcurrant aroma, raw feel. Full bodied, tart and dry. Some lacto notes lurking. Long finish. Excellent flavored fruit beer.

On tap at Fakin Craft Beer Bar, Zagreb. Dark purple, small lasting pink head. Aroma is blackcurrant and blueberry juice, some vanilla, some caramel, even burnt caramel. Soft toast and cocoa presence. Light acidity. Soft, blackcurrant jam, juice, thick, sour, meaty, alcohol hidden, drinkable. Moderate finish. Fruity all the way. Candy touch coming out slightly too obvious. Also, lactose balance adds a harsh caramel note. Otherwise very sophisticated.

Tap at 100 piv. Deep purple colour, opaque, oily, also dark purple head. Very high sourness, seems halfway lactic yogurty, halfway intense blackcurrant. Loads of the blackcurrant in flavour too, being the defining characteristic of the beer. Med-full perceived body, med-high carbonation. Excellent, but so intense it even hurts my cracked lips. Not for the fain hearted.
