(Bottle @ Erik's tasting, Stockholm, July 13/19) Pours reddish brown with an off-white head. Very tart fruited acetic Balsamic vibes with cherry but also raspberry/mixed forest berries, oaky, touch vinous, a little lactic. Lightish body, soft carb. Not bad but too sour to love it. RIP Council.

Bottle shared at Chris and Ruth Pre-GBBF 2017 tasting - London. Cheers! Pours hazy, very light grapefruit pink with a billowing, frothy white head. The nose holds lemon, seedy raspberry, soft funk. Lightly sweet with sturdy acidity, more lemon, tangy raspberry. Light to medium bodied with lively, massaging carbonation. Tart, quenching finish, strong acidity, further lemon, mild raspberry, soft seedy bitterness. Very good.

Fairly dark brown color, sour, tart, a bit acidic, funky. Lots of barrel, some peach and fruitiness. Pretty good. #forthebadge
