33cl can from Brewdog. Almost no head. Clear almost black pour. Too sour for me, the sourness overpowers

Black beer, decent light brown head though it soon dissipates to a frothy film. Smell mostly smells like a chocolate porter with a little tart fruit, the flavour is very different. Up front it's all sharp fruit, tart berries and then the more mellow malty praline flavour comes in to follow up and balance it out a bit. I wasn't sure this was going to work but I actually rather like it and I think the blend of sour and dessert dark works quite nicely.

Bottled 330ml. -at Goblet Zagreb. Almost black coloured, small off-white head, light hazelnut in the nose. Tartish chocolate and hazelnut taste with discreet berries. Short sourish finish. Had better from OW.

0.33l bottle. Very dark brown body, some off white head. Interesting interplay between chocolate and light lactic notes and funk. Taste... interesting, dry, quite tart, chocolate, fairly clean tartness, citric going towards funk slightly. Cranberry? Hmm... Hazelnut? Naaah? Lemony chocolate overall. Yay. Not great, not terrible.

33cl bottle from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark brown, with no foam. Aroma is woody, chocolate, cherry. Body is average, with moderate carbonation. Taste is medium-high sour, elegant. Final is fairly short.
