330 ml bottle from Etre Gourmet, bb Aug 2019.
Dark amber to copper, hazy body, with a quite small, fluffy, moderately lacing, slightly yellow head.
Aroma of oak, red wine, red berries, cherries, some cheese, some caramel.
Tastes quite acidic, of sour berries, sour cherries, oak, red wine, some vinegar.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a lively carbonation.
Finishes acidic, vinous, with sour berries, cherries, oak, some vinegar.
Very nice. Lots of sour fruits and vinous oak notes. Maybe a bit too acidic, while it still drinks pretty fresh, not too heavy. Overall not my favourite Alvinne, but another characterful one.

Sampled @ Borefts Beer Festival 2016, Day 1. Hazy dark orange color, average sized white head. Smell and taste indeed has firm raspberry, a nice balanced sourness. Decent body, a bit firm carbonation but suitable. Quite nice.

30/9/16: Refreshingly tart. Fruity, yes, but wouldn't immediately recognize raspberry. A bit one-dimensional, indeed. Still tasty.
23/10/19: Enjoying it way more this time, came to love Alvinne the past 3 years. Sour but very soft, lots of Morpheus, and lots of fruit. Refreshing, sweet, tart, flavourful and winey.
