At ACBF 2011. Coffee choc on aroma. Sourness in mouth takes you blindside. Completely unexpected you can’t tell what you;ll get from the aroma. Way way too unexpected. Cool and it’s German.

Black with a small off-white head. Aroma of licorice, malt, and spice. Tart malty and citrus fruity flavour with a salty note and a roasted finish. Really unique flavour has some gose-like salt, lemon tartness and porter character on top of that.

37cl bottle from Alvinne beershop, BB 03/2012. Brune foncée, mousse au teint moka qui disparaît vite. Arôme, malt biscuité, caramel, fruité noire avec une pointe de ce toffee que l’on retrouve dans pas mal de bières allemandes. Bière surprenante car on s’attend à une porter qui en fait est agrémentée de Brett donc un résultat surprenant alliant le caractère malt/grillé de la porter avec ce côté aigre. Je note des fruits noirs acidifiés avec une touche de réglisse. La palais est réchauffant de par les 8% et la fin conserve ce profile malt grillé et caramel qui se prête bien aux notes venant de Brettanomyces. L’aspect minéral du sel ne se fait pas vraiment ressentir.

Bottle from Galeria Kaufhof, Köln
Black color, low carbonation, small head. Nice aroma of coffee, vegetables, light sourness. The body is correctly structured, but there is a rather evident acidity, covering the chocolate flavor, and introducing the undesired flavor of vegetables and blood.
The supposed Bretts come through as infection more than controlled inoculation.

Draught: Reddish-black coloured, small, almost not existing head; dry cellary-sourish nose with a caramelly backbone; solid dry bitter-sweet flavour, faint traces of salt, relatively light bodied for a beer of 8.0%; lingering dry and smoother dark-malty finish. Not exciting, but O.K. .....

Bestimmt säuerlicher Antrunk, in dem andere Noten weit in den Hintergrund rücken. Die Säure bleibt einige Zeit sehr stark und unterbindet einige Aromen langfristig. Das erste andere erkennbare Aroma ist das Malz, das sich mit der Säure durchaus arrangieren kann. Etwas salzig, ausgewogen, zum Ende recht trocken. 12/12/12/12/15/12

ACBF. Opaque brown beer, residual tan head. Light dry palate. Sourish malt with salty fruity things going on! Some bubblegum near the end. Softish finish. Intertesting and taste bud tickling beer. Really like what this German brewer is doing - ie breaking free!

Small, dense beige, short-lived head over brown-black beer. Roasted, near-smokey onset of the nose; roasted nuts, and a touch of coffee. Lactic acid and roasted barley/coffee notes; stout-sourness enforcing it. Mineral, fresh, but not really salty. Acidity keeps going on, with a definite Brett-like streak. Retronasal more coffee. Well-bodied but not thick; long, rather refreshing aftertaste. Nice one. I wonder if the draught version turned out more salty than this bottled one, as this has absolutely no salty overload.
