Draught at Mikkeller Bar, Viktoriagade
Pitch black color with small collar of brown foam. Mild aroma of roasted malt. Lean mouthfeel, less than expected, very salty, with light vinous touch; ordinary bitterness.
Not remarkable for being especially well brewed not innovative.

Tap at Port Street Beer House, Manchester. 03.11.13. Hazy amber. Bubbly, off white head. Aroma of raspberry jam, lots of grapefruit hoppiness. Some grassiness too. Taste has a dirty, earthy, bitterness but manages a dried fruit sweetness too. Bitter finish.

Sample at the 2013 London Craft Beer Festival. Pours black-brown with a tight, creamy brown head. Nose has lots of chocolate and dark berries. Medium sweet flavor with cherries, dark raspberries, chocolate. Medium bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Finishes with nice dark berry character, moderate chocolate, light bitterness, general dark malts. Really quite nicely balanced. Solid.
