Rich elderberry notes meet a slight malt sweetness in this red beer, fresh, vinous and easy to drink, with a balanced carbonation and a full body that matches its strength. The taste pulls no punches, and the recipe uses elderberry juice from concentrate and a little salt. A fresh and daring red beer, it has also been sold as Faxe Red Erik.
