Every autumn the forests around our brewery are bursting with small wild blackberries. We spent some days with friends picking them for a beautiful tart red ale that had been aging in red wine barrels since 2015.
The result is Angela, a chestnut colored ale with a cream head. Aromas of prune, vanilla and toffee dominate, followed by the flavor of ripe blackberries, pepper, caramel, red wine, and toasty malts. Medium-bodied with a juicy, tart finish and hints of aged balsamic.

On tap at MBCC '19, Red session. Near-clear orange-brown body, grey-pinkish head, spotty lacing. Moderate dark berry skins on the nose. Mid-tart dark berries flavours, woody. Prolonged tart and dry ending. Alright without further excitements. (Copenhagen 11.05.2019).

Tap. Hazy amber color with white head. Aroma is blackberries, leather, quite aggressive. Taste is blackberries, very earthy and lots of tobacco, herbal even, a bit too earthy for me. Oily mouthfeel with medium carbonation.
