Bottle thanks to Russell. Pours black with medium tan head that lasts. The aroma is dark fruit, oak, roast, bourbon. Slick body, raisin, licorice, toffee, wood, boozy finish, enjoyed this.

Pours black, small white head. Scent is robust, mild roast, dried fruits. Taste is full, roasty, mild dried fruits, very gentle, chocolate, cocoa. Gingerbread. Intense finish that's everlasting (hence the name?) and keeps developing. If only for the finish, this beer is a straight up winner!

Flaska från trade. Svart med brun krona. Mer stout än barleywine i doften. Drar åt en hårt rostat old school imperial stout med rejäl sötma. Börjar likadant i smaken. Går sen över till barleywine-territorium med höga doser russin och katrinplommonjuice. Stor, kladdig kropp. Rejält med fatkaraktär, en del oxidationstoner från fatlagringen. Stor och dekadent i båda delar av blenden. Kanske en något väl tilltagen sötma för att kunna dricka särskilt mycket av.

375mL bottle, pours jet black with a small light brown head. Aroma is complex as hell, with lots of leather, gentle smoke, intense bourbon barrels, molasses, and burnt brown sugar. Flavour is decadent, rich and wonderfully complex, with intense brown sugar sweetness, molasses, leather, smoke, and big bourbon and oak barrels. Definitely on the sweet side, but not cloying. The depth of flavours and integration is remarkable. Elegant. Lovely.

Bottle. Pours black with a light brown head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has dark grains and lots of bourbon and chocolate with a bit of toffee growing. Flavor has sweet dark grains supported by dark grains, a light toffee and growing caramel supporting.
