BB 21/04/2025, Batch BBC-722, 330ml bottle; Purchased at Beergium online shop;
AROMA: complex & layered aroma of toasted sugars & dry fruits like dates, prunes, clear bounty chocolate bar, toasted coconut, brown sugar, soft bourbon is nicely incorporated, hints of sweet candied cherries, smoke, gentle spicy alcohol presence on the nose but otherwise very hidden for 13% abv; toasted bread, bread crust & impressions of rye bread, hints of red fruit; no obvious roast on the nose, subtle to low umami presence on the edges;
TASTE: lacks a bit in carbonation, quite low, medium to medium full body, slightly thin on edges, slightly syrupy mouthfeel but not thick or chewy, umami, meaty & mineral edge to it, no alcohol heat at all; surprisingly moderate to slightly medium sweet onset of toasted sugars & dry fruits, brown sugar syrup, dates, raisins & prunes, hints of sweet rum, crushed coffee beans, bitter chocolate topped with toasted coconut at the backend, well baked bread crust, lingering coconut at fairly dry & woody finish, subtle tannins, bourbon is quite restrained, I get more rum-like notes; light to medium light roasted bitterness; spicy alcohol notes, a bit peppery/hints of peppers in the after taste, subtle vanilla;
OVERALL: lacks a bit on the mouthfeel & body for IS but otherwise very harmonious with no clashing flavors and masterfully hidden alcohol; dangerously drinkable for abv
Ty Monster Magnet. Magus ja mõru, tugev lagrits, kohv, röst, šokolaad, alkohol (aga 13% vol kohta pole midagi hullu). Päris korralikult tummine kraam. Mingi õrn noot on, mis häirib ka... hea kraam sellest hoolimata.
Mooi gebalanceerd.
Bottle. Almost black. Chocolate, vanilla and a hint of pepper in the aroma. Malty sweet flavor with vanilla, chocolate, coconut, pepper and bourbon. Has thinned a bit. Roasty coconut finish.
