Enjoyed at the Copenhagen Beer Fest. Reviewed from notes.
A - Poured a clear dark brown slightly garnet hue with no head whatsoever.
S - Aromas of a nice light flanders red aroma, little bit of malt sweetness, super super faint cherry sweetness.
T - Taste is similar to the nose, just pops much more. More light flanders red notes, some malt sweetness, light caramel, the cherries again are incredibly faint, decent vinous wine notes though.
M - Mouthfeel is sticky and thin.
O - Overall was a disappointing beer from Funky Buddha. The cherries were incredibly underwhelming and the barrel was awfully subtle.
Serving Type: on tap

pours muddled purplish color with off white head
aroma is light vinegar with just a hint of black cherry
taste is mostly vinegar it really overpowers any cherry flavors there may be
feel - medium bodied very tart and pretty dry finish
overall not a huge fan the vinegar overpowers pretty much everything in the taste.
