Bottle 50 cl. Pours thick and syrupy with no head. Some tar in the nose and an odd, fruity tartness. Rich, sweet body, close to flat. Roast, slightly smoky, again with this odd tartness. I believe I can actually pick up the plum juice. It's an odd bird, but the tartness and the lack of carbonation really bothers me. 060219
