Sample from 2014 bottle during Blarney Wine Festival 2019 on 03/16/2019. Clear brownish-amber color with a thin light beige head that recedes quickly to a sparse outer ring. Spots of lacing. Aroma of bourbon, fruit, oak and malt. Full-bodied with flavors of oaky bourbon, vanilla, fruit and roast malt. The finish is oaky with a bourbon and malt aftertaste. Good beer all around.

Bottle, 22oz, shared by bergstaden. Close to black in the glass, very very dark brown, clear-looking, and with a dense dark beige head. The aroma is quite heavy, yet mellow, with roasted malts, coffee, dark chocolate, some prunes and bourbon, vanilla and a spiced hint. It’s full-bodied and warming, smooth and sweet, with a good bitterness to deal with the sugars. Roasted malts. coffee, chocolate, bourbon, wood and vanilla, some faint cardamom hints and an earthy hint. Lasting finish. A really delicious beer indeed, smooth, mellow and tasteful. 170311
