Vintage 2017 (one-off);Very harmonious aroma with surprisingly moderate to medium sweetness from toasted sugars, brown, molasses, honey
Sweet BA loveliness
Bottle shared. Pours black with a brownish head. Aromas of honey, vanilla, fudge, light roast, caramel. Taste has lots of honey, caramel, milk chocolate, vanilla, lightly oxidized barrel notes. Tastes more like a strong ale than a porter.
Bottled. Black with brief, tan head. Vanilla, coffee, figs, bourbon. A bit warming. On the sweeter side with loads of brown sugar, some molasses. Short, mildly warming finish.
From tap at the Muted Horn, Berlin. Dark brown to black color with beige brown head. Malty aroma, roasted, dark dried fruits, raisins, plums, caramel fudge, honey notes, chocolate, licorice, vanilla, alcohol. Heavy sweet and light bitter taste. Medium oily body with soft carbonation.
Draft at beertemple. Aroma of delicious bourbon vanilla, caramel fudge, cherry, honey, chocolate and oak. Taste of smooth bourbon vanilla, caramel fudge, chocolate, cherry, honey and a long delicious finish. Very nice.
Sampled from bottle thanks to Caesar. Opaque pitch black color, small off-white head. Smell and taste milk chocolate, cocoa powder, liquor, raisins. Heavy but good.
Bottle @Caesar's Mancave tasting, shared with Benzai, black with a fine brown head. aroma of bourbon, malts, chocolate, sweet, roasted. Taste lovely bourbon, roasted, dark malts, chocolate, cacao, heavy, sweet, very nice.
Dark pour with a fine-grained tan head. Notes of bourbon, vanilla, honey, sweet chocolate. A bit of a sugar bomb, but other than the excess sweetness, this is an outstanding beer. --- Beer merged from original tick of Jackie O's / To Øl Antik on 20 Apr 2018 at 22:44 - Score: 9.
