Fast receding pinkish head over faintly veiled brownish-garnet beer. Almost vinous, fruitwine-like, red berries beer. Red wine wafts. Fresh ànd dried berry flavours. Grapeskins, winebarrels resulting in long-lasting wineflavours. Medium bodied, not very carbonated, tart verging on astringency. Excellent!

Gents Bier Festival 2023 - Clear red, no head. Aroma and flavour have lots of sweet red fruit. It's offset by a pleasant sourness. Juicy and tart.
