Draught@CBC2016. Amber/copper colour with a beige head. Aroma is tequila, some tart wood, grapes and mild plummy tones. Flavour is tequila, wood, some tartness as well as mild floral tones to it. Quite different but nicely in balance.

(Sample @ CBC 2016 Green Session, Copenhagen) Pours a slightly hazy iced tea colour. Aroma of caramel, agave syrup, acetic acid that's a little balsamico, some leafy notes, oak, pretty sour but fairly well-balanced by the other components. Flavour punches through with a big hit of acidity, quite a lime juice vibe to it, more lactic than the nose. Dark toasty malts, agave syrup, moderate to plentiful tequila, toasted wood, a bit of lime zest. Some sweetness from the malts slightly offsets the acidity. Light to medium-bodied, average carbonation. Given some tequila beers, this was actually a little restrained in barrel character but definitely doesn't hide it, which is a good thing. Not super fancy but I liked it, and the sourness didn't bother me as much as some Rare Barrel.

On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2016. This one has a darker looking almost amber bronze color, near clear and a small beige sidesticking top. Smells vinegar and wood mainly. Some dark berries, lingon perhaps. It tastes really vinegar infused and a little Flemmish mild. Nice and oily and above average on the carbonation. Heart warming and super acidic in the taste. A tad too for my taste right about now. It kinda ruins all the other elements in this one. Not bad still. 14.05.2016
