Draught Black beer with a grey rim. Bourbon, vanilla, rum, I rumbonen /I, chocolate. Perfumed, whisky or Bourbon. Definitely sweet but not a trace of excess. Perfumey and also a special feel from the rye. Awfully strong (12% indicated, instead of 12.4). Another great one from Alan.

2015 bottle thanks to Douglas. Huge rye whisky nose, smoke, honey. Almost black. Low head but almost flat. A bit boozy for sure, with woody rye, cherry, honey, and a nice tartness as well. Huge barrel. Awesome fun stuff.

Dark brown, almost black, with no hint of carbonation. Smells like sour cherries, cocoa, coffee, ripe grapes, sherry, bourbon and alcohol. Bitter-sweet taste, with notes of cocoa, cherries, vanilla, oak, bourbon, sherry and feint coffee. The alcohol is present, but very well incorporated with the flavor. Very smooth mouthfeel and a nice bitter sweet aftertaste.

Bottle share from Toby. Well deserving of its scores, all around top marks for its smoothness, welcoming aroma and enveloping taste. This is one to seek out and savor. Wish it came in bigger bottles...
