Draught, taster. @Mikkeller Viktoriagade, Copenhagen (Denmark). 03/05/2023 [#6.125 Global - #937 United States of America - #6 De Garde Brewing] Pours dark purple with a small pinkish head. Aroma: lot of berries, yoghurt, light wood and fresh funk. Taste: berry sweetness, tart raspberries, pulp and funk. Velvethy mouthfeel. Complex and tasty. Next one please!

Beautiful fruity aroma of raspberry Pours inky with a purple head that sustains as small bubbles around the edges. Flavor is berry and tart. Delicious.

Big bottle shared with Vasily, Vran, Beer Bubble and others. Deep purple, pink head. Vinous, red wine, lots of fruit, blackberry, funky notes underneath, light barrel. High carbonation. Dark fruit, blackberry yoghurt, fresh fruit, quite sour. There's leaves, bitter herbs. Light finish, medium body. Quite sharp. Puckering.
