On tap at Mikkeller & Friends, pours a murky dark mahogany with a small pink head. Aroma brings out tart red grape skins and oak. Flavour is loaded with complex wild bugs, dry grape skins, and oak barrels. Dry, vinous and wild. Wonderful.

100ml (ordered after NY girls convinced the bartender to do half pours, hehe) shared with Ryan sitting at the bar and talking to the Mikkeller employees. Appearance: purple with almost with a weak rose head. Aroma: funky, some nice and juicy 🍇 notes. Taste: along the same lines, quite dry with moderately tannins. Overall: good one.
