Dark golden without head. Aroma is lychee, gooseberries, phenols, funky, leather. Taste is sharp alcoholic spicy with lots of dry grape-y vineous stuff. Too heavy. Number 2 was better because the sourness fought the alcoholicness well.

Light brown without head. Aroma is clove, grapes, rum, honey, syrup. Taste is incredibly sour and very alcoholic, with a smoky passion fruit finish. Quite spicy as well. Very oily and incredibly heavy in the mouth. Very phenolic but not ugly and overloaded. Phew that was interesting.

Cloudy amber, quite viscous. Peach and strawberry liquor aroma. Salty acidic entry, quite dry despite the viscosity, citric acid, fruit/berry to the back. Very interesting.

Bottle, many thanks TTT! Rather clear deep golden color with white late-appearing head. Aroma is grapes, caramel, fudge. Taste is grapes, citric, balsamico, fudge, salty lemon. Oily mouthfeel, quite vineous. Fighting a lot between sweet and sour, late carbonation there. Awesome, more interesting, but less drinkable than #1, and like #1, a truly unique experience.

Bottle at Erzbierschof Monday Club. Pours clear amber with a small head. Aroma is strongly lactic, milk, bitter almond, mint, solubles. Body is heavy, salty, lots of umami, very sour, lactic, fruity, but while extreme in all directions, all well balanced. Soft carbonation. Long salty intense palate, warming, boozy, but still very balanced. An incredible beer, a great, great experiment. Many thanks, Herr Schneider!

Bottle at Erzbierschof Monday Club. Pours flat viscous clear amber. Aroma is formaldehyde, bitter almond, strong dried overripe fruit. Body is heavy, sweet, lactic, salty beyond anything. Still very well balanced, super strong. Long salty boozy palate. An outstanding beer!

At Craft Bier Festival Rapperswil. Hazy orange color with white head. Some fruits, some salt, some lacto, quite a milky mouthfeel. Overall pretty light. Okay, but does not fit together very well.

Tap at CBF. Weak aroma, but a lot of milk serum in the taste. It does seem to battle with the beer though, not harmonic.
