Lattina. All'olfatto si esprimono sentori di sour. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e l'esistenza olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma resiste poco. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. Il colore è come l'inchiostro nero. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è nella media e c'è anche una componente sour pungente. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è sufficiente. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di cioccolato, nocciole tostate, frutta secca, acetico, cherry, vino rosso, bubblegum, salsa di soia e vaniglia.

--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Dark brown, small head. Aroma of instant chocolate powder poured into vinegar. Tart with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Instant chocolate, oaky vinegar, lingonberry concentrate and some odd peanut butter. The base beer seems to be fairly nice, and I can just imagine how fun the guys at the brewery had when they were dead drunk and dropped all this shit into the beer.

Bottled. Deep brown colour, mediumsized off-white head. Aroma is chocolate, some fruits, mild tart wooden notes with some funk. Flavour is chocolate, mild toasted tones with some nutty and berryish tones. Tartish somewhat dry finish.

Bottle. Morrison’s. Fridge clear out job. Pours like thick flat cola. Halo of tan tight bubbles. Nose has thick flat cola. Nut roast. Sour apple. Praline. Chocolate ice cream. Taste is tart and dry, with a sticky chocolate sweetness on the lips. Decent body with fine crisp carbonation. Sourness kicks in on the finish. Doesn’t come together too well for me. Seems all over the place. Fair play to Morrison’s for sticking these on the shelf, though.
