From the brewer

Fruit and caramel flavors begin, smoky notes and a vibrant bitterness follow. Where extra hops and a stronger alcohol percentage were once used to preserve the beer, allowing it to survive and thrive during long sea voyages, now they yield its bold taste and unique flavor profile.

Who's been drinking this

It does not taste like what I have come to expect from a Guinness.
Slightly sour back taste, thin body.
Not as bad as the -26 that was predicted
Just gross. Weirdly sour, with a weird, sweet, herbal-grassy overtone. Yuck.
