500 ml bottle. Bottled 4/29/12; about 11 months old. Pours murky amber with a medium beige-red head with good retention. Aroma is funky, fruity, brown sugar, dusty; smells good, but it’s not all that forceful. Taste is a little bit sweet, a little tart and savory with a dry finish. A little watery. Mouthfeel is foamy, body medium. Not all that much flavor, really. Not bad. I thought it would be better, though.

Bottle at ChrisO Holiday Tasting, London - thanks to Henrik. Super gusher! Pours cloudy purple with a light, foamy head. Funky berry nose. Moderately sweet flavor with sweat, funk, light grass and berries. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Tart finish, sugary berries, mild funk. Alright.

Bottle at ChrisO tasting, thanks to Henrik, 30/12/12. Mega Gusher !!! as rlgk touched on - he wore half the bottle about his person, Henrik and I got off lightly, one damp leg for me ! Hazed dark amber with almost no head. Nose is a little dungy, caramel, sweet sugars. Taste follows, sugars, dark toffee, sour fruit notes. Medium bodied with soft carbonation with some light bitterness in the finish. Ok stuff.

Bottle. Poured a murky reddish brown colour with a fading off white head. Nose of earthy fruit and malts. Flavour was similar with a little sourness and notes of yeast and spices. The fruit lingered on into the finish. Quite unique really. Not bad.
