Bottle at Yespr’s. It pours clear, reddish-amber with a minimal beige head. The nose is candied stuff, must, burnt fruit load, spice and dirt. The taste is sweet, boozy, wood, earth, dried fruits, burnt bread, spice, must and medicinal notes with a dry finish. Medium body, prickly carbonation and oily mouth-feel. I’m not a fan....
