37.5cl bottle pours with a deep dark brown colored body that has dark copper hued edges and supports a thin tan head of foam. The aroma offers up chocolate (mostly a dark chocolate sensation), vast amount of vanilla, a bit of roasted malts and then a peanut like nuttiness rounding things out. Another pull and the whiskey (or maybe also bourbon) like barrel treatment is noticed as well. The taste is rich and slick and oily with desert sipper beer goodness. I get velvety dark chocolate and sweet vanilla bean wrapped around a supple whiskey like booziness. Well off in the background are murmurs of nuttiness and a sense of roastiness. This is well integrated and well constructed with pleasing balance between adjuncted beer and the barrel treatment. Solid stuff.
