On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2013. It's really dark and ruby brown this and it has a small islandy and sidesticking dark beige head. Sugary sweet, lots of dark glazed fruits on the sweet nose, and wood, yeah it has some good amount of dry okay wood as well. Some zesty fruits shines through, dark candied sugar and prunes. Nice dark flavors. It's almost a bit roasted in a way. Salty and fruity with lots of dark black dried fruits. Some yeast as well. The zesty kind. Oily mouthfeel and above average on the carbonation level. Oaty and really mouthdrying in the finish. Lots of complexity with many small nuances of fruits and sweetness. Really impressive. 04.05.2013

Draught @ CBC2013. Pours hazy deep reddish brown with a creamy goldenish beige head that slowly dissipates while leaving some lacing and trace on the glass. Smell is sweet and malty with sweet dark bread, biscuits, caramel, cookies, dried dark fruits, bourbon, vanilla fudge, roasted nuts and charred wood. Taste is sweet and tiny fruity tart with sweet dark bread, cookies, tart cherries, prunes, raisins, figs, caramel, bourbon, vanilla fudge, charred wood, toffee, biscuits, caramelized nuts and hints of alcohol. Mouthfeel is round, creamy, tiny tart and near full bodied. Finish is sweet and tiny bitter with sweet dark bread, prunes, raisins, figs, hay, charred wood, vanilla fudge, burnt cookies, roasted nuts and bourbon. A real treat...
