Super deep dark brown coloured body with a thick, luscious and oily tan and light brown coloured head - fairly opaque throughout, perhaps around 80%. Aroma of alcohol, bourbon, vanilla, grass, lactose, milk, cream, a dose of oak and ending with dry malts. Medium to Full-bodied; Super deep roasted malt, oak, vanilla and grainy bite with a big profile from the caramel and burnt sugars with a lot of punch and stronger notes from the alcohol, yeast and also from the caramel and molasses, which are noticeable immediately. Aftertaste shows the alcohol and toasted malt, grain, light bitterness and a more refined, if not, simplistic malt note. Aftertaste is pungent with the toasted (but still not roasted) malt (that finishes nice and pungent. Overlal, a deep and robust beer throughout the profiles, but more astringent alcohol than i remember having. Overall,a nice and deep robust beer with a ton of flaours.
