No head to get on this; dirty rusty-brown beer, still. Grapey nose, raisins, alcohol & fusels. Again raisins, alcohol; some bitterness over underlying sweetness; bit syrupy, maltsugars. Bitterish plums. Warming up, the flavours blend better, achieving balance. Alcoholthinning. Aftertaste has a faint sourish hint, quite welcome. Starts a tad raw, but gradually it feels better and better, ending quite good.
