Bottle from Pivotex, again. Dark dark cola body, tan creamy head. Creamy chocolatey malty aroma, light alcohol, slightly oily, quite nice. Taste... warming chocolatey, bit roasty dry taste. A touch of slightly soapy fruitiness among the chocolatey roast, bit light and dry, warming in the end. Okay stout, the aging only gave it a mild tartness perhaps, but the base beer still somehow feels better than the treatment made it to be.

0.33 l bottle from Pivoteka, Zagreb. Shared with Marko and Anna God. Dark amber to brown, small beige head. Aroma is fruity, wood, malts, alcohol. Not as complex. Creamy texture, quite dry, lots of wood, no wine though. Fruit also disappeared. Thick, warming alcohol. Good for sipping. Cocoa and roasty finish. Light for a RIS.

Sample from bottle at Wijnhuis Ede bierproeverij april 13, 2018. Color: Black, light brown head. Taste: Pretty sweet, roasted malt, chocolate and coffee, dark cherries. Subtle vinuous. Pretty easy drinkable, well balanced. Nice one, the red wine BA works out well. 2020-10-04: Bottle, near to bbd2020-10-12. Aroma: Roasted malt, vinuous hints. Taste: Roasted malt, coffee, mocha, some licorice, still subtle vinuous, red wine hints. Medium sweet, moderate bitterness, very slightly vinuous tartness and slightly salty. Bit sticky mouthfeel. Subtle wood. Bit boozy, warming mouthfeel. Wouldn’t rate this 4.2 now, but still a nice one.: 8 4 8 4 15 = 3.9

33cl Bottle, thanks Harmen! Black colour, beige head. Looks great. Aroma of milk chocolate, hint of sourness, red wine, wood, but all very faint, some roasted malts. Flavour is medium sweet, malty, yeasty, some of the base beer certainly has some off notes like Berging also has, hint of red wine and wood, chocolate, some roast, bitter finish. Medium bodied. Drinks easy but is certainly lacking in some areas.

zwart met licht bruine (volle) kraag. aroma van geroosterde en gebrande mouten, mout en chocolade. smaken zijn zacht, geroosterd, gebrand, chocolade, volmoutig, matig bitter, matig tot redelijk zoet, lichte rode fruitigheid maar erg beperkt, wat hout, redelijke tot volle body, moet zeggen vind de rode wijn wel wat mee vallen. best te doen deze
