This beer was nice but the guys below are overdoing it a bit, bunch of wankers. Cask @ Blind Tiger. Pours like the headless horseman, with the dark soul. Aroma is definitely dominated by the dry hopping of the elderberry. It comes off as dry leafy petals, not green leaves, not floral, but leafy dry petals, weird, different, and interesting. I am also surprised how much more easy drinking this is than the oaked version. Some light chocolate but still an herbal and not an "in your face brew to the extreme" beer. Is this really 12%, I can hardly believe it, actually I can’t believe how different this is compared the normal (its weird when oaked becomes the regular) version.
