Bottle shared in London - thanks to Daniel. Pours black-brown with a creamy, tan head. Nice aroma, with rich chocolate, dark fruits, toffee. Medium. To heavy sweet flavour with more chocolate, dates, berries, mild alcohol. Full bodied, lightly chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish with more dates and figs, ripe berries, toffee, creamy chocolate. Great stuff overall.

Bottle. Pours opaque black, small tan head, dissipates fairly quickly, decent lacing. Aroma of anise, molasses, cognac, spices, cinnamon, cocoa. Flavor is pretty sweet, light plus bitter, loads of molasses and anise, cocoa, root beer, cognac. Fullish body. Pretty nice.

Bottle shared. Thanks for this one Raul! Big cognac nose with oak and dark fruit dominating, but fairly sweet...also lots of dark honey. Slightly syrupy on the palate, maybe a hint of oilness and alcohol very well hidden. Super smooth with more honey, orange, chocolate and currants. Decadent!

Bottle at home, black beer, small to no head. Aroma is cognac, malt, roasted, dark fruit, alcohol. Taste is the same with chocolate, bittersweet, long aftertaste with dark fruit, and cognac, damn... this is good.
