Black colour. Chocolate, lightly earthy, and lightly fruity, raspberry jam; good body strength, even if the sweetness is very light; tar, some cardboard. Balanced, the fruit and tartness are visible, but not excessive.

2020 vintage. 22 oz. bottle, pours black with a medium brown head. Aroma brings out subdued, lightly tart raspberries, cocoa, and very subdued earthy whiskey barrels. Flavour is somewhat earthy and boozy, with plenty of boozy whiskey barrels and chocolate-covered raspberries. Not all that integrated or pronounced in character. Muddled, earthy and somewhat boozy. Not too impressed here.

Bottle courtesy of Beer Republic Nr Breda Netherlands and consumed at Hotel Plackl, Altötting Thursday 14th April 2022, after a decent meal at Wirtshaus Barbarossa (Augustiner Bräu). Pours black with a slim fast disappearing tan head. This is a little bit thin, yea there is raspberry and chocolate but I am left a little underwhelmed, I've had really nice beers from these guys but this, well this is fine.
