750mL bottle, pours a deep dark purpleish mahogany with a medium pink head. Aroma is complex as hell, with lots of musty red grape skins, lots of bugs, oak, and red wine barrels. Flavour is very dry and buggy, with intense red wine barrels, red wine grape skins, and bugs. Bone dry, with tons of brett, musty dry grape skins, and oak. Complex, vinous and dry. Wonderful. Another beer showing why Burdock are the masters of wine beers.
