Bottle, 75cl. A mostly clear dark golden colored beer with more or less no bubbles on top. The aroma has a good dash of berries, in a quite generic way, with some gooseberry sticking out. Apricot, orange and grapefruit zest and a touch of grains too. Oak, funk and vinegar. It's quite dry on the palate, softly carbonated, with a vinegary sourness. Apricot, gooseberry, grass and melon hints, some grains and oak and a good dash of vinegar. Lightly vinous too, with notes of leather, tobacco and horse sweat. Lasting puckering finish. Sure, it's nice, but I find it too vinegary, and that removes much of the drinkability for me. 231031
