Bottle shared at chriso’s winter tasting 8/12/2014. thick dark opaque back coloured pour with a fleeting light tan head. Aroma is coco nibs, soft choc, light berry, little brett funk on the nose as well. Flavour is composed of nutty chocolate, coco nibs, funky brett funk, pineapple, musty. Palate is medium full bodied, soft carbonation, spicy, tart edge. Linger coco and tart berry. A bit odd but it kinda works.

Sampled during RBSG. From notes. Loads of dry grape, very champagne like. Heavy on the acidic side.

Bottle 500ml (ABM, BB 06/2015)
Dark brown color, steady brownish head, lace. Sticky cellary aroma with faint hints of coffee. Medium-bodied. Flavor has lots of coffee, roastyness but also vinegar and cellar. Unfortunately.

Deep ruby color, medium-sized beige head, some lace. Aroma is tart, earthy and berries. Light-bodied. Berryish, red currant and cranberries, hints of strawberries. Light cellary notes. Very dry, red wineous. Light as ABV indicates. Much more simple than Rodenbach.
