Nice brown with clear rim PnP initially all raisins and plum. But with 2-3hrs air it opened. Nose; beautiful deep crushed ripe red berries, smoke, tobacco and coal. Love the low alcohol, putting forward red berries, sweet red drops, Red Orlic tobacco. Very nice dept and length with a medium body.

This one is going to be a matter of personal taste. Reminds me of the beer I used to make in my kitchen in college - tastes very unlike any "commercial" beverage, but is oddly delicious. Nice acidity, great earth, and refreshingly low alcohol. I like, but will keep these for personal pleasure, not serving to friends.

No formal notes, but drinking very well now. Clearly nature wine.

Completely awkward. The nose was clearly oxidized and the palate expressed so much acidity a resemblance to vinegar is accurate. Sad.
