Bottle - oh man, what a lovely example - the lagered portion really shines through up front, with notes of berry, caramelized sugars, vanilla - the barreled portion brings deeper notes of roast, coffee, oak, whiskey - dense layers of tamarind, umami, smoke - it’s dang good.

Black with a lasting tan head. Roasted aroma with liquorice, treacle, coffee, leather and light smoke, with a touch of booze. Sweet, roasted flavour with loads of liquorice and a hard roasted, ashy edge.

Good, if incredibly sweet. Full of fudge, molasses, caramel, dried fruit, and raisin, with a little black cherry and cola on the back end. Underlined with orange blossom honey and a woody bitterness. Finishes as sweet as it begins, but the lack of alcohol is astounding for a beer this big. Gets to be a bit much as the pint empties, but wickedly easy to drink.

Taste: toasted malts, caramelized sugar, dried fruit, dark chocolate, hop. Balanced ending bitterness. Mouth feel: full minus body, appropriate carbonation. Overall: a high class brew.

Rozgrzewające, mnóstwo palonych słodów, gorzka czekolada, melasa. Trochę za alkoholowe. Jakby kwiatowe w tle.
