Bottle shared at tasting. Pours black with a thick beige head with low retention. Aroma is massive oak and bourbon, chocolate, fudge, vanilla, and very subdued roasted notes. Flavour is moderate to heavy sweet and light bitter. Warming in the finish and oily but lighter than expected mouthfeel. Still fairly full bodied with soft but tingly carbonation. I get the impression that the base beer has been very overpowered by the BA but still very good.

66cl bottle courtesy of Kermis and shared :-) thanks Thin tan head. Bourbon aroma. Clear dark pour. Vanilla and bourbon in the aftertaste. The barrel aging is lovely. A great brew!
