When sipped, the wood component stands out and supports the notes of tobacco, which strike a good balance with the hints of nuts and dark chocolate.

Superficial tasting at company beer tasting. 2018 edition. Dark brown without carbonation. Strong aroma and taste. Malt, dry fruit, cherry, Madeira, wood, mild oxidation, balanced alcohol, super smooth. Delicious sipper. Couldn’t identify the tobacco part.

2014 Bottle via Shiggy Shig in Chapel Hill at George's place. Awesome.
Opaque, dirt brown, expectedly flat pour.
Slightly spent, Cheerios, nutty & dark chocolate nose. Still opening up.
Serious m&m candy feels, sticky toffee, sweet tobacco, candy shell, heavy cream. Hits on flavor.
Zero carb, lux, not cloying, not much burn.
Interesting.

Аромат очень классный и многогранный. Ощущается много карамели и в целом сладость от ликера, много бочки и древянистости, а также стойки но не крепкий дымок от бочки с сигарами, также есть ноты сухофруктов и груши, намеки на мед. Есть алкоголь конечно. Цвет прозрачный, очень необычный, нежно карамельный, по текстуре не густой, пены конечно не было вообще. Вкус очень нежный, чуть ли не кремовый. Снова груша и сухофрукты, курага точнее, дымок на месте но уже меньше. Намек на мед есть а так очень ликёрное тело со стойкими нотами алкоголя. При послевкусие карамель, как будто сироп но не сладкий но немного терпкий. В целом очень сложное пиво по ароматным ноткам, советую всем его попробовать. Советую всем.

Dark chestnut colour, no head, as expected. Aroma of malt, vanilla, glue, chocolate. Still, full bodied; delicious malt, sweet, with notes of cookies, strong vanilla, touch of tobacco, dried fruits, and then gently leading into mild astringency, and cacao. Delicious.
