Bottle (03.08.13): About one year into the label’s stated cellar ‘grace’ period, been sitting in my basement since last May. Golden pour, very bold with great clarity, and a little white head. Smells sweet and lighty vinous at first, before opening up a bit with some sweeter notes of vanilla and caramel. Seemingly peanut butter. The first sip yields a high octane result. Instant warmth with a medium-weight oily feel. More caramel and vanilla with a lighter oak presence, but there is a grainy bit to it as well. Highly carbonated and the ABV is certainly noticeable. As it warms the bourbon influence becomes more and more noticeable, along with a light apple cider vibe. Intense. 750ml format is way too much to enjoy solo, probably best split by 4-5.

Refrigerated 75 cl brown 2013 bottle poured into a tulip. Pours clear caramel with big fluffy off-white head. Aroma is caramel malt/bourbon, medium body, high carbonation (which dies down pretty fast), and some big bubble lacing. Taste is big caramel, bourbon, oak, some vanilla and bitter finish. Heavy, but pretty good.

Odense Beer & Ball Saturday - Cardiff vs. Arsenal. Hazy orange with a lasting white head. Aroma of malt, some fruit, a touch of alcohol, and lots of fresh oak. Sweet and somewhat overwhelming flavour dominated by oak with malt, alcohol and fruit. Lots of oak, and not too much elegance for an 11.5% beer
