Tap at Drunk Uncle. Wow. Nocturnum and Noel mix is already great. the barrel tone is rather huge and boozy. A slow sipper, pretty enjoyable.

750ml bottle thanks to Kenny. It pours clear deep brown with a thick, fluffy beige head. The aroma is nutty, woody, bitter - sweet, bourbon soaked oak, vanilla fudge, coffee cake, malt loaf, brown bread and cocoa powder. The taste is initially dry, bitter - sweet, coffee grounds, cacao nibs, brown bread, raisin, sultana, malt loaf, boozey warmth, plum, prune, tannin, touch of spice and peppery spice with a drying finish. Fulsome body and moderate carbonation.

On tap at the Brugge Beer Festival 2023, Brugge, Belgium. A dark ruby/brown coloured pour with a medium beige head on top. Bourbon, caramel, vanilla, dark fruit taste/aroma. Pleasant boozy Belgian.

Tap at Mort Subite in Austin - hazy amber - thick lace - flavors of bourbon, oak, dark fruit, marzipan, vanilla - soft texture - earthy character - light tartness and not overly sweet, with well-masked alcohol - it’s delicious (and I’m glad it is, considering it was a 14 dollar pour).
