23/9/22: A rare treat, this. Thick, rich and smooth, with a nice warmth to it. Besides that, it's also absolutely delicious. Fairly sweet, with a nice amount of bourbon. Light chocolate, vanilla, and plenty of coffee roast. Well done!

24/9/22: Once more!

On tap at the brewery tap, at 11.2%. Pours pitch black, noticeably thick and with a tan head that's still there twenty minutes after the pour. Bourbon, vanilla, oak, chocolate, bitter dark chocolate, booze soaked Christmas pudding, bit of brandied cherry. Body like treacle, essentially requires being shaken out the glass. Perhaps not quite the elegance of the regular Ramjet, with the bourbon a little less seamlessly integrated. It's still an absolutely exceptional beer. Boatrocker really are operating a barrel program light years ahead of anything else I've had from Australia.

On tap at Boatrocker Taproom. Pours jet black with a tan head. Aroma: intense bourbon barrel, chocolate, coffee, a little smoke. Taste: moderate sweet with a big bourbon barrel influence, also dark chocolate, mocha, liquorice, raisins, vanilla, molasses. Medium to heavy bodied, sticky, oily texture, adequate carb. Dry bitter-ish finish. Lots of barrel here but that’s fine by me

On tap at the Local Taphouse Sydney, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of tons of roasted malt and light cocoa. Flavour is intense, with high sweetness, roasted malt and cocoa. Almost a syrupy palate. Nice stuff, but not exactly elegant. Good one.

Bottle. Black with a tan head that settles to a cm and is less than a coat after a while. Aroma of whisky fudge, chocolate, a little smoke, blackberries, cardamon. Oily, luscious. Low carbonation. Sweet with layers of fudgy/ singed caramel, some roasted malt, mocha, blackberries. Big sweetness is somewhat tamed at the end by bitterness and a drying waft of booze. The spirit notes are perhaps slightly less well integrated than the normal version. Like the normal version I wished for a little more stout and a little less barrel.

Bottle. Very boozy nose, with treacly topnotes. Pours oily black. Gorgeous in the mouth, coating tongue with a port-like tingle. This packs a big punch of licorice, raisins, vanilla with the bourbon permeating. My wife exclaimed "that ain’t beer". I retorted, "it’s beer in all its wonder".
