Draught. Deep reddish brown colour, small reddish head. Aroma is cherries, some red wine and mild grape juice. Flavour is cherries, quite much plum, alcohol and some mild nutty and wooden tones along with some slight red wine notes.

(Bottle, 1.0 l - hand bottled, from the brewery, 20201225) The beer poured dark brown and nearly cloudy. Its head was quite large, nearly white and it lasted rather long. Aroma had vineousness, vanilla and toasted malts. Palate was medium bodied and warming with medium carbonation. Flavours were vineousness, red wine, vanilla, toasted malts and bitterness. Aftertaste had wood, red wine and bitterness. A complex brew with very strong notes from the barrel. Bit hard to drink because of the strong alcohol warmth.

Tap at SOPP2018, Helsinki. Colour is dark ruby with very small white head. Aromas and flavours: Berries, red berries, cherries, blue berries, vanilla? dryness, wood and some hints of malts. Strange combo. Hard to say anything serious about this one Harsh very dry flavours. Wasn't as musty as I expected.
