Colaboración con la gente de Laugar Brewery. Una cerveza potente, potente!
El estilo “Wee Heavy” nace en Escocia el cómo Strong Scotch Ale y se caracteriza por una profunda maltosidad acompañado una importante densidad inicial y un alto volumen alcohólico.
Y por si no hubiera suficiente… la hemos envejecido durante 9 meses en barricas de WHISKY!!

Draft tasting glass @ Billie’s Bier Kafétaria. Black, mocha head on the sides. Nose is sweet boozy syrup, chocolate with some umami & soy sauce notes. Bourbon / sweet boozy whisky is not that clear in the nose but it really hits you in the taste, its all upfront, sweet sugar oak whisky bourbon candy sweet sugar, dark fruits raisin, very sweet, heavy sweet whisky largely upfront, faint almost Doppelbock massive sweet qualities, faint dark cherry. Thick syrupy. This reminded me of BA Dark Lord, very sweet but a bit sweeter, touch better maybe even. Tasted like a hugely successful clone despite the Wee Heavy goal. Really awesome the whisky, the sweetness, thickness,… A highlight for both breweries.

Bottle. Dark brown pour. Aroma has toffee, caramel, red fruit, vanilla, raisin and malt. Taste of sticky caramel toffee, red fruit, fudge, mild booze, vanilla, malt and burnt caramel. Sweet finish with a mild whiskey burn. I had to get used to it for a few minutes, but it works. Good beer.

Bottle at home. Says Whisky Barrel Aged. Also shows a Laugar logo and a text mentioning a collab. Black with no head. Sweet deep roasted chocolate malts, toffee, hazlenut, marzipan and vanilla, whisky notes close to rum. Big sweet and moderate bitter. Over medium body, creamy and oily feel and soft carbonation. --- Beer merged from original tick of Heavy Trooper on 23 Dec 2017 at 17:38 - Score: 8. Original review text: 4

Black with a quickly diminishing head. Aroma is truely amazing, a very lovely sweet heavy whisky/bourbon like sweet alcoholic note, roasted and toasted, chocolate, cacao, soft, sweet. Taste of massive sweet whisky/bourbon like, chocolate, cacao, wow i'm impressed... this is exactly what i like in a beer, rich, dark, smooth, creamy, soft, datk chocolate, well if i could try to find an aspect that could use an improvement it would be the thickness of the beer/mouthfeel, otherwise let's finish with one word: AMAZING ! --- Beer merged from original tick of Heavy Trooper on 25 May 2018 at 16:41 - Score: 8
