Keg at Elusive. Nutty chocolate aroma before fruity berries come through. Dark cola brown. Opaque. Bubbly beige head just clings to the rim. Light bitter - there a malty chocolatey core throughout. Over the top there are sour edged sweet berries. Medium bodied. Slick, some thickness. Average carbonation. Long astringent finish. Enjoyable misture of sweetness and a sour edge.
