Tap at the LB fest, courtesy of Miro. Deeper brown/blackish pour with a red hue and an off-white head. Nose is roasted barley, chocolate, light coffee, berries and stone fruits. Quite tannic and somewhat funky. Taste is sweetish malts upfront, there's cocoa, chocolate, some dark sugars and then it shows acidic, fruity, funky notes. Closes with a dry, fruity and tartish finish, has a medium to full body and soft carbonation. I dig the dark and funky stuff, like this.

Bottle 0.75l from our archive, two years aged. Almost clear, dark red to black colored. AROMA- full of sour cherries, sour cherry in chocolate, cocoa nibs, lightly vinous. FLAVOR- smooth, just slightly sweet, lightly bitter, quite sour and tart, vinous, sour cherries, earthy. Fuller bodied. And another sourish imperial stout. Quite tasty in this way.

Tap at LB 4. Big thanks Miro! Red-brown body, off-white head. Red wine, sweet taste, juicy, chocolatey, caramelly, bready undertones. Cherry-like red berry/grape-driven tartish taste, with light chocolate, earthy notes, light funk if I read here correctly. Quite nice!
