(375ml bottle from kihoskh.dk) Pours dark brown to black with an average pale tan head that leaves a thick ring and lace. Aroma of mixed sweet/tart cherry pie, fruit-infused balsamic vinegar, lactic lemon, dark malt, toast, light chocolate powder, wood, whiskey, liqueur candies. Flavour is quite sour, lactic lemon domination with a touch of acetic acid too, very subtle cherry, sight malt, sweetness, wood, light spirit, finish has some slight drying wood, toasted bitterness, but bracing lactic notes persist long into the aftertaste. Not very complex taste-wise. Medium bodied, slightly above average carbonation, no alcohol. Eh, I expected a lot better, and the nose at least hinted at that. In the end, the one dimensionality of it meant it was just sour and not so pleasant.

Draft. A black beer with a lazing brown head. The aroma has notes of cherries, chocolate, brettanomyces, and a bit of wood. The flavor is very sour with notes of cherries, malt, brettanomyces, lemons, and wood, leading to a tart finish.
