375ml. Cloudy cover pour wit a large beige head. Lots of earthy wood, and hints if vanilla upfront in the aroma. Grape, and vinous red wine show up with some solid bretty funk. Light mouth feel, lively carb. Finish is funky, and tart with big red wine notes and light earthy hops with some wet grass and hay. Finished quite dry, light bitterness, bretty funk. Nice.

Cloudy copper pour, big beige head. Aroma is full of dark fruit, plums, figs and such. Yeast malts, with some oak, and slightly tart cherries. The subtly tart cherries are quite the nice compliment to the already dark fruits and yeasty malts. Gets quite boozy as it warms, and the cherries actually take over as it warms also.
