Pours deep mahogany into a tulip. Off-white head with medium retention recedes leaving scant lacing. Blackberry aromas. Dry with sweet summer berry upfront turning to mildly sour blackberry before the medium length marshmallow finish.

Bottle at home on Easter Sunday. Loving this brew. Pours hazy orange with frothy bg head. Bottle gushed a bit but I mistreated it in transport. Nose s lovely honey and white wine. The barrel aging is spot on and the brandy plays with honey just perfect. Tastes of brandy, honey, Chardonnay, vanilla, some pineapple. It seems sweet but isn’t overpoweringly so. It’s quite a treat.

The sampler, brooklyn tap: pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is citrus and a bunch of resin. Taste is relatively bitter. Nice body. Tastes very fresh.

Tasting at Matt’s
Murky blond color, small head, not inviting. Fruity aroma, sour. Overly carbonated; extreme astringent flavor, dirty, yeasty, with excessive bitterness, covering any fruity character.
Dirty and almost undrinkable.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Stas & Vova. Murky pale yellow with a white head. Aroma of apples, earth, flowers, spice, citrus and a funky note. Sourish flavor, mildly funky and lactic, with citrus, yeast, apples and mild floral spiciness. Rather light-bodied, lively carbonation. Very good and refreshing.

Bottle - Light soured pale malts. Cloudy yellow gold. Sweet and lightly tart ale, some light fruity esters and banana. Not bad.
