Keg at Friends of Ham. It pours darkest brown with a thick beige head. The aroma is rich, oily, slightly medicinal, dark fruits, fruit, cake dried berry and the like. The taste is not too disimilar, dry, oily, oak, leather, dark fruits, Eccles cake, toasted sugar, slightly vinous, liquorice and some arming alcohol through the finish. Full body and fine carbonation. Never too sweet. Robust and punchy. Decent stuff.

Beaverfest Day 2. Keg. Hazy deep amber beer, small pale tan head. Light palate, semi dry and with decent fine minerally carbonation. Sweet malts, sweet caramel and light cream. Smooth bourbon soaked fruits. Sweet floralness. More obvious bourbon on the crisp finish. Light and drinkable!

Fat på All In Beer Fest 2017. Mörk mahognybrun, lätt smutsig med liten, liten vitbeige krona. Sött och maltigt med massor av torkad frukt, farinsocker, maltsötma, fikon och johannesbröd. Stor, kletig kropp med viss fatkaraktär. Värmer på lite av alkoholen och bourbonen kommer fram snyggt. Sött och smaskigt!
