Maybe the best blackberry wild I've had yet. Time will do wonderful things with this. Bubbly but only at the first pour, sweet jammy finish. Fantastic mouth feel and upfront nose.

Bottle from Side Project and brought to Aaron's birthday share. Pours a deep purple to almost black with a small bit of foam that dissipates. Big, brambly blackberry nose with wood, blackberry jam and hay. As it warms more of the same on the palate with some skin and seed astringency to go with the jammy blackberry notes. Tart, woody and a light oak sweetness in the background. Lingering tartness, musty hay and blackberry.
