A 375ml corked and caged bottle, bottled on 28th June 2019. Poured into a 3 Fonteinen stemmed glass.
Appearance: A lightly hazy dark amber copper colour, with a thin khaki head that dissipated quickly to a ring around the glass, while leaving some lacing.
Aroma: Light tartness, grape, dark fruit, plum, cherry, honey, oak, vanilla, and a splash of lime zest.
Taste: Tart, lightly sour, grape, lightly vinous, caramel malt, lemon juice, honey, oak, with light rye spiciness on the finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with soft carbonation.
Overall: Enjoyable, but carbonation was a little light for my liking.

375 mL bottle. Pours deep amber. Smells of green apples acidity, honey, and some rye. Tastes of sour green apples, brown bread and some spicy rye, and a strong wine back end. Wine really dominates the back end. Lingering green apple tartness. Medium body. It's not bad.

Pouring from a 12.7 oz. corked bottle into a PAA tasting glass, this beer pours out like a deep, burnt caramel in color with lemon highlights. It forms a thin crown made of brown eggshell bubbles. 4
The nose brings a nice acidity and a ton of different fruit; peach flesh, pear, dark cherries. 4.5
The taste comes in with that fruit all over again. A bunch of funky, almost rotten fruit (in a good way) while still showing ripe and bright fruit as well. Very faint rye bread to it. 4.5
The mouthfeel has a great fruit flesh, peel, skin and a tartness that dries the whole mouth out. Definitely refreshing. Very much balanced. 4.5
Overall, this is a treat. I can’t put it into the words it deserves, but I can enjoy it. 4.5
