From tap at Mellombels Ølstove, Bryne, with BHK and Gjermund before Vandrefestivalen 2024. Dark ruby. Some pink head. Superb taste of cherries, blueberries and rye bread. Scaringly drinkable for such a high ABV.

Bottle @ company tasting. Almost clear, deep red body under a small pink head. Aroma is distinct cherry with some malt and a hint of cherry stone. Taste has soft malt, distinct cherry, cherry skin, dark fruits, and some cherry stone. Quite sweet with lemon kind of acidity. Balanced body with long lasting sweet and sour aftertaste. Lots of taste and good balance.

300ml draught at BrewYard, shared with Finn. Deep dark reddish body, scattered lacing, bare naked surface. Quite prominent smell of berry skins and oats. Dark berries to the taste character supported by earthy malts and yeasty fruitiness. Long-lived, warming end, semi dry. Decent sipper. (Tromsø, 24.04.2024).

Delt med Rune. Ultradyprød. Skumring. Tydelig kirsebæraroma. Smaken det samme. Balansert. Bra!
