Pours amber from the jug. The soft white head is creamy and lingers for the duration. The aroma is all bourbon, smoke, and peat with just a whiff of vinegar. Taste is sour, lightly bitter, and frankly something like a whisky, beer, vinegar mix . The brew is nearly 3 months past the expiration date. Usually not a problem but in this case it does not seem to have held up. Donated my glass to someone less discriminating.

SAMPLE at a tasting. Murky dark amber, small head. Full of smoke and peat. Absolutely dry, and very sour. Probably infected.

Bottle shared at the Cafe Abseits tasting during the Bamberg Excursion. Cheers! Pours copper-orange with a foamy white head. Some juicy, ripe fruits present, moderate sweetness, alcohol, ripe berries. Full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Warming finish with some pale wood, booze, bread, ripe fruits. Good one.
