Pours deep mahogany into a shaker. White head with little retention recedes to skim surface. Sourdough and pumpernickel aromas. Dark sourdough, molasses and dry, sour overripe berries before the dirty earth finish.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Alexey. Deep reddish amber. Stinky aroma, slightly sourish, with diacetyl, cabbage, candy and caramel. Sweet flavor with diacetyl, some vegetables, candy and a bit of fruitiness. Kinda creamy diacetyl mouthfeel. Awful.

At a tasting, thanks, small stable light brown creamy head, ’ quite clear deep red color, aroma of confectionary, wood and hints of dark honey, flavor of candy and plastic with something vegetal. Just plain bad.

It pours a dark brown leaving the same color body. A small white film of a head appears and settles immediately into the body. The smell has the malts up front with some nice roasty caramel coming in as the beer warms. The taste takes those smells and makes it very sweet in an earthy sort of way. The palate is about a medium with nothing harsh on the tongue. There is a dry aftertaste. It is fairly drinkable. Overall, this is good for its style and good for me.
