650ml bottle. Jet black colour with average, frothy, diminishing, brown head. Sweet-ish, chocolately dark malty and caramel malty as well as fruity aroma, some spicy aspects, notes of dark chocolate, treacle, dark caramel, blueberry, plum butter, hints of vanilla, cocoa, cinnamon, chili, raspberry, a minimally alcoholic Mezcal touch. Taste is sweet-ish, chocolately dark malty, fruity and spicy, notes of dark chocolate, cocoa, cinnamon, slightly unspeciifc hints of red and blue berries (raspberry, blueberry, plum butter as well) are noticeable but aren't really separable from Mezcal flavours, hints of vanilla, subtle hints of chili show a typical accumulating effect but remain widely in the background; the same applies to the alcohol that is widely but not completely hidden. Viscous texture, smooth, soft and cloying palate, soft carbonation. Very rich and complex, superbly balanced and harmonious, surprisingly fruity - excellent brew.

Bottle split@Peders, Copenhagen From all of US to all of us Takeover (30/01/2020) - black pour with a thin ringed beige head. Dark roasted and sweet malty with big rich decadent chocolate, caramel and toffee sweetness, big sweet roasted malty backbone and full bodied, some ashy roast and some spiced chilli layers into the dark malty finish. Comes together so well. Immense.
