0,75l bottle at home. Dark Red color, small pink head. Smells basil, berry notes, spices, coriander. Lovely smell. Full body, soft carbonation. Tastes berry notes, blackberries, herbal, spices, basil, rather bitter. Finishes lightly dry and lightly sour and rather bitter with notes of basil, herbal and berry notes. Love this one, super unique, great combination of sour and bitter

Dark red body, with a big, creamy, pink head.
Lovely aroma of jammy blackberries, basil, wood, some citrus. Tastes similar, while more bitter and dry.
Medium mouthfeel, with an average carbonation. Finishes dry, quite bitter, wooden, fruity, a bit vinous, with basil.
Amazing stuff! Such a unqiue character, while the berries and the basil work suprisingly well together, this is like something Antidoot would do.

Draft pour to a tulip, enjoyed at Elliott Bay Pizza. Dark grape juice reddish purple, bright hot pink foam. Jammy aroma, tart mixed berries. Intense tart front that slowly smooths out. Some wine grape, dry finish. Moderate acidity, some oak, sour sharp finish. Really unique brew. Been a while since I've come across one from these guys, and I instantly miss it. Very good one here.

Sample (thanks fonefan!). Slightly hazy golden colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is dried fruits, some mild tart wooden tones with a wee bit of sweetness from the hops, malts and maybe some vanilla. Flavour is tart, some floral, leathery and mild vanilla tones with quite a spiciness kicking in too.

Bottle. Poured a clear orange color with a large white head. Aroma was funky brett, grapefruit. Light malt, touch of grain. Funky, delicate yeast. Pleasant stuff.

750ml (thx, Phill!) @ Sales Force. Appearance: very dark purple with a dark rose head. Looks amazing. Aroma: dry, intense dry framboise, some sweetness. Taste: along the same lines, a lot of dry raspberries, oak notes. Overall: pretty good for what it is, but it went too far in terms of dryness. At least it is not acidic.
