0.31l bottle. Slightly hazy golden body, white head. Aroma and taste of honey, nutmeg and citrusy, earthy hops. Quite bitter. I don’t get a whole lot of brett character, but it’s still nice.

Tasting at Matt’s
Brown color, no head. Nice aroma mix, chocolate, dark bread, tobacco. The mouthfeel is a bit oily, but strong; very nice chocolate flavor, not roasty at all, quite sweet, also a bit too boozy, with a touch of liquorice.
A bit rough, but very good.

310mL bottle, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is quite fruity, with lots of red berries, cocoa and some caramel. Flavour is along the same lines, sort of like a black forest cake, with notes of red berries and chocolate in wonderful combination. Like a sweet, fruity, chocolatey dessert. Really nice.

310mL bottle, pours a cloudy yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma is very citric and floral, with detergent notes and an acidic end note. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of citric notes and a pronounced soapy, floral quality. Quite ascorbic on the finish. Not very good.
