Black, near flat, seems quite thick. Smell is sour, almond, cherry. Body is heavy, low carbed. Taste is lightly sour, the almond is clearly there and softens it up. Cherry present as well, which almost always work with sour beers. After 2 misses, a hit!

Black, flat. Smells slightly sour with something biscuitty in it, hint of ammonia. Unpleasant. Taste is sour, dry, not much passion fruit to be found. Not as bas as the smell, but not really pleasant tasting either. Dead, shame.

High pressure can. Pours black, some soda carb. Smell is odd, real vegetal, reminding me of water cress. Light body for the ABV. Taste is damn weird, sharp sour with again that water cress. No bright lime at all. Some slight chocolate at the end. Mneh.

High pressure can, no gusher. Poors black, soda carbonation. Smell is sour, less sharp than base, getting some rum raisins. Surprisingly smooth, no sharpness at all. Taste is sweetish raisiny rum firstz followed by that sourness they all have, ending rum.

Can. Beer Central Sheffield. Deep chestnut brown. Moderate haze. Slimmest ring of head. Nose has sour cherry. Old oak. Cigar leaf. Red wine dregs. Leather. Background notes of dark chocolate and caramel. Taste has a semi sweet balsamic tartness. Some vinous bitterness. The drinkability for a 13.7% beer is properly impressive. Fine brisk carbonation. Big red wine finish. Solid gear.
