Pours dark redpurple. Scent is intense on the red grapes. Taste is sharp, tart, very grape forward. A bit one-dimentionnal to the grapes for me.

Draught Deep burgundy-purple beer with a small white rim. Vinous perfumed beer, with lavender or rosemary aromas, also rosewater, cherry, cassis, raspberry - a jumble of aromas but absolutely balanced. Vinous, cassis, but also acids; fruit-, lactic-, and even a pinch of acetic. Blackcurrant finish. Rather well-bodied despite the acidburn and --thinning. Remarkable, excellent fruitbeer.

11/XI/22 - on tap @ Billie’s Craft Beer Fest (day 1), BB: n/a (2022-1482) Thanks to all for sharing today’s beers!
A little cloudy red amber to maroon chestnut brown beer, small creamy off-white head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: funky, very sourish, dry, a bit acidic, ok, but not great. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: dry, spicy, herbal, a bit minty, some melon rind, a malty touch, soapy bitterness, and pretty sourish as well. Aftertaste: acidic, some vinegar, fruity, red berries, bitter, sea buckthorn, dry, meh.

Draft @ Billie's Craft Beer Fest 2022.
Cuivre/ambre, col fin blanc-cassé.
Arôme au nez fin fruité - effet vin rouge/barrique présent avec un retrait agréable de cassis qui revient plus en rétro-nasal. Le tout passe bien avec l'apport de la barrique.
Palais sur une belle présence de 'foeder' avec un fruité rappelant ici le cassis et les groseilles, fine note surette en retrait et un retour plus prononcé de la barrique de Chianti. L'apport du Mosaic comme houblon apporte peu en terme de complexité.
