33 cl bottle poured into a brewery branded Teku glass, in Toulouse, FR.
Nice fizz of bouncy foam mellows down quick onto a flat deep brown brew with brilliant ruby highlights.
Nose is winey, woody, mildly roasty, light pipe tobacco, light roast coffee.
Taste comes on with the Calvados (an apple Brandy from the Normandy region of France) barrel right up front. Once the stun subsides, the roll of flavors pop with tart (not sour.,) assorted vine fruits, oak. Finish is a chocolate covered Amorena cherry kiss, and nicely muted heat. Pistachio and almond flavors are very nuanced and serve only as complements to the experience.
IMO, this is a stylish hybrid beer / wine.
Mouthfeel is smoove from the addition of oats and lactose. Medium in density and carbonation.
Overall, a beautifully stylish and elegant taste sensation.
