Refrigerated 75 cl brown bottle poured into a snifter. Black with small brown head. Aroma is chai, medium/thick body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is strong cardamom, anise, and ginger. Mother of god this is too spiced.

Dark brown, viscous. Dry spiced smell, cardemon, clove. Smooth mouthfeel, bit of warming boozy. Taste is a bit smokey, lots of spice: clove, cardemon, bit of ginger. Not bad, but too overspiced for me. Upon reveal: wasn't expecting, fun!

Chai tea, vanilla, bourbon, chocolate malt, and fresh hay aroma. Black with small brown head. Moderately sweet milky chai tea, chocolate malt, bourbon, and moderately bitter fresh hay/grass and alcohol flavor. Okay body but light for the style. Very nice Chai flavor but malt a bit light.

Keg at Cloudwater London. Pours deep brown with a frothy, khaki head. Lightly sweet with some lemongrass, spicy chai, baking cocoa. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly warming finish, not overly sweet, with some zesty notes, more spicy chai, cocoa. Not too thick. Decent stuff.
