One of our most aggressive and sought-after offerings. Bold bourbon, tobacco and espresso aromas and a hint of American oak greet the nose. Rich, chewy roasted malts, charred oak and bourbon-like vanilla fill the palate and create a seamless finish. A remarkably complex brew that offers a transcendental drinking experience – enjoy with good company.

Magus, mõru, vanilje, kuiv, röst, kohv, alks on päris tugev. Hea.

Well stored bottle tasted June 2025. Pitch black body under a dense beige head. Nice aroma of dark, roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, wood, some Bourbon, vanilla and dry fruit. Taste is medium sweet smooth, strong dark roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, dry fruit, Bourbon, wood, vanilla and balanced bitterness. Full bodied with a long, long lasting, warming aftertaste. So nice and so smooth. Delicious.

Has aged surprisingly well. Roasty, sweetish and slightly earthy with some prunes, figs, coffee and oaky barrel.

Sample from a bottle at Mikkeller Beer Celebration Copenhagen 2025, blue session. A rich, flavourful stout - vanilla, bourbon barrel, oak, bonfire, and coffee.
