Bottle at Sander’s place in NYC during an evening of prodigous drinking. Also, thanks to Sander for cracking open this doozy. Pours dark brown with a faint foam head. Nose holds tangy charcoal. Flavor is medium to big sweet with some dark fruits, moderate roast, coal, tangy grapes and light licorice. Full bodied with fine carbonation. Moderate warmth at the end, with dark sugars and tangy dark fruits, along with background roast and a bit of tar. It’s a very interesting beer, if a bit messy overall.

Raft at the source. Clear golden color, thick white head. Aroma if - guess what - blueberries. Taste is bitter berries. Not sure that a lager-like beer works as the base for fruit beers.
