Bottle shared at L42. It pours lightly hazy red - brown with a small beige head. The aroma is soft, sweet, tangy, juicy, berry, port wine, sherbet, Granny Smith apple, earthy, sweat, must and grape. The taste is dry, tart, juicy sour, grape skin, port, wood, warming alcohol, lemomade, Granny Smith apple, earth and spice with a drying, woody finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Quite nice actually. Hides abv well.

MBCC 2017: Woody barrels. Low sweetness. Lots of wood. Some wine. Not bad but underwhelming. Also it was fortunately easy to drink for the size.

On tap at Vrteška 2017. Pours brown with small white head. Malty, caramel, dried fruit, some wood, bit vinous, sweetish and sourish combo. Low carbonation, way easier to drink than expected. Medium+ bodied.

On tap at Vrteška. Hazy brown-amber body with a tiny off white head. Slightly sourish spicy aroma, a bit vinuous, sweetish, a bit oily. Mild tart(ish) taste, raisins, wine barrel, a bit tannic. Tasty, not cloying, good but not great. Alcohol very well hidden.

Tap. Dark brown color with tan head. Aroma is acetone, balsamico, figs, vineous. Taste is caramel, chocolate, vineous. Low carbonation. Quite nice, but a bit too "dark" to be excellent.
