Smell: berry fruit
Appearance: thin purple head on murky purple liquid. Looks like unfiltered grape juice bought from a roadside stand.
Taste: not sugary. Sour base, not at all brett or Belgian funk, berries, dark toast, coffee. Has a nice persistance. Very complex.
Feel: typical for a sour.
Don't know if I would buy this again but I do look forward to trying the second bottle I bought.

Pours a very dark cranberry with an initially lovely off/red sort of light lavender head. Quickly fades.
Nose is of light esters, light grape tones and hints of smokey chocolate - nothing too assertive and pretty light in small.
Taste is plain weird. Not bad; not good; has a sort of anise flavor profile with hints of grapes and chocolate.
Finish is very short but clean and non-descript.

This beer pours with a purple tinted creamy head on an opaque eggplant colored body. The nose shows you a good malt . caramel ,breaddy, some dark fruits. It also shows you a hint of smoke which I was not expecting and a lovely sweetness from the elderberry juice. There is a brief and cursory scent of sour and a faint vinegar note. No alcohol on the nose or palate. The beer is a juicy beer with lots of middle. The bread is underneath and the hops come up suprisingly strong in this one to offer a crisp bitter that does not exceed the malty finish nor the touch of sour. The mouthfeel is fullish. The smoke is on the palate and that puzzles me a bit. It seems to lend texture to the beer. The sour aspect is just mouthwatering and as you drink it seems to mix with elderberry stems and a faint nuttiness that I would describe as nutshells or nut skins.. It is not too strong though and does not compromise the other flavors. I don't know what to think

In a snifter the beer was a dark reddish brown color with a tiny tan head. It was very still.
Sweet aroma, some dark fruit. There was a hint of sourness.
Caramel taste, plums and raisins. A tinge of tartness.
Sweet, medium-bodied.
A very easy to drink beer. The 10% ABV is not at all noticeable.

Served alongside Münchhausen.
Dark amber body, hints of crimson. Nearly an inch of soapy beige head. Aromas of baked bread, vanilla, tart fruit. Lactic character, kiwi, vanilla, cream soda. Interesting and unique. Sweet more than sour. An assortment of flavors I have yet to experience.
