Enjoyed at 60F in a snifter. Thanks Eric. This is the non-provisions label.A &#8211; Pours a tan amber brown out of the bottle. In the glass, it\u2019s pitch black. No head was formed at all. No lacing on the swish.<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; Very funky on the nose. Tart cherries, oak and raspberries. Hint of vinegar.<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Very interesting. Sort of a roasty taste at the finish. Very much a flanders style flavor profile but perhaps too much acidity and vinegar for my liking. It does lack balance but the stout characteristics are a nice change from what I usually get in tart wild beers.<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; Solid carbonation on the mouth swish. Light body.<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; The best way to describe this is unique. It\u2019s one of the most unique beers I\u2019ve ever had but the vinegar makes it hard to give it higher than a 4.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a title=\"View 'Bruery Tart of Darkness' on Flickr.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/44048128@N00\/8103750724\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8195\/8103750724_6f886edc35_z.jpg?resize=640%2C480&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Bruery Tart of Darkness\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View 'Bruery Tart of Darkness' on Flickr.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/44048128@N00\/8103734159\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8467\/8103734159_3767b8130d_z.jpg?resize=480%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Bruery Tart of Darkness\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"3.8 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0AROMA\u00a09\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0APPEARANCE\u00a04\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TASTE\u00a07\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0PALATE\u00a04\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0OVERALL\u00a014\/20 adamjackson\u00a0(764)\u00a0&#8211; Canaan, New Hampshire, USA &#8211; OCT 17, 2012 Acquired in a trade.
