33 cl bottle @ lusikka, BBE 31.12.2012
Rather foamy stuff. Be careful or you’ll end up with just foam in your glass. Aroma has earthy notes and urinal cake. Flavour is sourish with earthy notes, some urinal cake and distant coffee notes. Quite odd, I would take this as a (hoppy) black farmhouse saison.

Scura buona schiuma discreta persistenza nota luppolata citrica quasi speziata leggere tostature una nota asprigna non molto corpo piuttosto secca buon amaro abbastanza lungo un leggero pepato

Black beer with a brownish, bubbly head. Chocolate (and malt, maybe?) in the aroma. Strong chocolate flavour with a sweet hint, fruit perhaps?

Sample at SBWF 2012. Black with a small tan head. Roasted malt, some licorice, chocolate and soft hoppy notes. An ok beer.

Bottle (Stockholm Beer Festival 2012) - Black in colour. Roasted malt in the aroma. Roasted, tangy and chocolatey taste with coffee, malt and chocolate detected.

Cask at St Albans beer festival 2012. A black coloured pour with a medium beige head on top. Roasty, fruity aroma. Tastes bitter, chocolate, slightly sour, hoppy. I was expecting something better from Summer Wine.

Draught at Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan. Opaque black liquid with medium tan head. Aroma of grass, passion fruit, mango, coffee and ash. Taste is dry and medium bitter with notes of grass, ash and coffee. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. All right BIPA. Not bad.

Draught at Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm. Near black, coarse beige head. Aroma of coffee, bread, licorice and grapefruit. Mid dry with above medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Some dark chocolate and nougat. Salty and grapefruity with lingering bitter finish.

330 ml bottle bought @ The Bottle Shop Canterbury. Pours tiny hazy amberish dark brown with a huge frothy and fluffy beige head that slowly dissipates while leaving some thick lacing on the glass. Smell is tiny sweet and spicy with roasted malts, banana bread, cloves, minerals, coffee, dry wood, orange zest, dark bread, leather, black pepper, dusty rye flour, apricots, mandarin oranges, coriander roots, plums and hints of grapefruit juice. Taste is tiny sweet and very bitter and slightly sour with roasted malts, grapefruit juice, orange peal, salty liquorice, dark roast coffee, black pepper, cloves, coriander roots, dry wood, moist grass, dried apricots, dark rye bread, lemon grass, resin, pine, plums and hints of burnt cookies. Mouthfeel is slightly dry, slightly astringent, tiny tart, tiny watery, tiny oily bitter and medium bodied. Finish is bitter, tiny sour and slightly astringent with roasted malts, lemon balm, grapefruit peal, orange peal, black pepper, cloves, pine and dried apricots. A nice try but quite unbalanced...
