В аромате уже при открытие ощущается сладкие нотки от виски и бочки из под нее. Много солода, сладкие тона, немного цветочных и пряных ноток, много от бочки соответственно. Цвет коричневый, пенка хорошая, зернистая. Вкус более мягкий чем я думал, снова бочка но нету ярких сладких ноток от виски или бурбона, немного карамели. При глотке нотки алкоголя, снова солод, изюм с намёком на миндаль, пряный вкус плавно переходит в кофе. Хороший квад но был бы лучше без бочки, лично мое мнение.

Almost clear deep amber brown beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Fairly smooth and semi dry palate, decent fine carbonation. The malts seem on thin side with respect to the mouthfeel. Smooth but thin caramel and cream malts. Nice smooth bourbon barrel, smooth and fruity. Light and semi dry finish brings a touch of alcohol spice. Nice BBA beer but it's a quad that only serves the barrel. That works for a barleywine but feels a bit short for a quad.

Bottle at home in Hackney - sourced from online. Pours mostly clear red-brown with a creamy beige head. Rich, fairly sweet, nice toffee, toasted brown bread, nips of vanilla and toasted caramel and wood, modest alcohol, raisins and other dried fruits. Medium to full bodied, lightly chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, further stewed berries, toffee, toasted malts. Extremely drinkable. Exceptional overall.
