Bottle from the brewery. Jet black pour, two fingers of mocha head. Aroma is tart, and very acidic. Roasty and chocolaty, with some soft oak, and vanilla. Mouth feel is oily, and not as thick as I expected. Carb is soft, and the finish is medium highly bitter. The barrel shows up more at the end, very earthy and the berries add a solid tartness. The berries are present but not the star of the show at all.
