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.

Bottle at RateBeer 100 for 100 event. Darkish brown with a beige head. aroma of Bourbon, praline, fudge. Not all that sweet. I like rather more stout than spirit barrel really but the light roast and clean and light but firm bread underpin things enough. Just enough bitterness to finish. Really good.

Flaska från Systembolaget:
Färgen är inte svart utan riktigt, riktigt mörkbrun. Skummet är medelstort. I den söta doften hittar man kola, nötter och choklad. Bourbon smyger i bakgrunden och stöttar upp det hela. Smaken går i doftens fotspår. Alkoholen värmer på slutet.
En ytterst välbalanserad och finstämd dryck.

Bottle shared @Luppolo Station (Rome). Nera, densa, impenetrabile, schiuma leggera color cappuccino. Al naso note di cioccolato, tiramisù, leggera ossidazione. In bocca è dolce all'attacco con finale amaro contenuto. Corpo pieno, carbonazione medio-bassa. Molto buona, anche se mi aspettavo di più.

In der Nase schon sehr überzeugend, deutlich ist das Bourbon-Fass auszumachen. Dazu ebenso markant Schokolade. Im Trunk sehr cremig, Schokolade, Bourbon, kaum alkoholisch, gefährlich hohe Drinkability. Dann leicht bitter, hinten dann leicht alkoholisches Mundgefühl. Tolles Deserbier. Spät leicht holzig, im positiven Sinn. Ganz großes Kino.
