When it comes to using fruit to flavor a beer, I think elderberries may be the best (currants could work well too, but I haven't found a currant beer. If anyone knows one let me know!) Apart from the flavor, this beer is a well rounded black ale. It is smooth, and is not too heavy. The elderberries add a strong flavor, but it blends well with the malt flavor, creating a rich but not overpowering taste. The after taste is very mild and does not last too long. I had this beer with a burger and it paired very well.
4/5
