Refrigerated 75 cl brown bottle poured into a glass. Dark brown with small beige head. Aroma is whiskey, medium body, and small-bubble lacing. Taste is malt and whiskey.

Dark brown color. Big malty sweet nose with loads of bourbon. Big malty mouth, lots of dark fruit, chocolate, burnt raisins, brown sugar, boozy, lots of bourbon, but never overly sweet or cloying. Big warming finish with some dark fruit chocolate and bourbon notes. I like the fact it’s never gets too sweet for being so big. In that sense it’s well balanced and executed. Didn’t find it had mind blowing depth and I prefer the Angry Moses more, but nonetheless a solid brew.

Tap at Yellow Ape. Nose of vanilla, whiskey, chocolate, some coffee. Almost black. Sweet flavor of oak, vanilla, rye. Nice prickly finish. Good stuff.

On tap at Yellow Ape’s 4th Anniversary Event. A reddish brown pour with a beige head. It’s got a sharp floral rye whiskey aroma. Medium bodied and fairly smooth bodied, the taste is oaky, wood, whiskey and sweet but really nice and that massive ABV is completely hidden.

Had at the Harajuku Taproom. Don’t know if it was made at Baird or Country Boy. Medium brown, with a thicker, bubbly head. Darker fruits, some barrely notes, and some light esters. Soft body, some alcohol apparent, has a caramel, butterscotchy note. Comes across as a barrel-aged old ale. Bit more butterscotchy than I would like.

Tap at Nakameguro Taproom. Big, whiskey nose that stands out but as it warms up more cacao nib and fudge notes start to come out. Fairly sweet and rich with lots molasses and some sorghum. Coats the palate and feels really well-rounded on the palate. Some light spiced cake notes. Vanilla and light oak comes out as it warms even more. Some toasted coconut maybe...slightly boozy finish with a really long lingering pepperiness from the rye. Very well done beer. Nice one boys.
