For years, Black Tuesday has needed little, if any, introduction. But Black Tuesday® Reserve is a different matter entirely. Brewed in early 2014, Black Tuesday Reserve was aged in bourbon barrels for 10 months and then racked into a second collection of bourbon barrels, where it rested until bottled in autumn 2015. The double barrel-aging process of the 20.5% ABV beer has made it even more decadent while intensifying its characteristics, with flavors of dark chocolate fudge, sweet vanilla beans, bourbon-laced macaroons, sticky caramel, brown sugar, and German chocolate cake

Pours black, no real head. Smell is boozy, bourbon, mildly sweet-like roastyness. Taste is full, intense, boozy, heat, sweet, chocolate, bourbon. Not bad at all ( I'm a fan of the series, unlike many in Belgium ) but yes, perhaps a bit too boozy.

Piekna beczka. Alko niezle schowane ale gryzie i tak. Gladkie. Slodkie. Waniliowe. Bombonierkowe. Mega piwo ale za duzo bym nie wypil. 4.4?
