Sampled at Borefts Beer Festival 2019, day 2. Opaque black color, small beige to light brown colored head. Aroma is malts, bourbon notes, chocolate, vanilla in the exact right amount. Absolutely delicious. Flavor is delicious too: malt, dark malts, chocolate dark chocolate, moderately bitter. Lovely. Full body, average carboantion that realy suits the beer. Lovely. Winner of the festival for me I think.

Black with a small beige head. Aroma of bourbon, oak, chocolate, brownies, fudge, vanilla, light boozy notes and coffee. Flavour is heavy sweet. Medium bodied with and initially thick but then more watery finish body, spice warmth and soft carbonation.

Bottle @ Brouwerij de Molen (volunteers gathering), thanks for sharing John & Petra! Pours a black colour and a light brown head with good retention. Aroma's of sweet malts and honey, plus whiskey. Retronasal it's sweetish, whiskey, boozy-fruity, honey. Flavour is rather sweet with some roasty bitterness. Medium bodied. Long finish. One of the better ones of this series.
