Bottle shared by Joes. Opaque pitch black color, small brown head. Aroma is glue, green apples, light notes of some kind of paint remover fluid, super super boozy alcohol. Not very nice at all. Taste malts, roasted malts, brandy indeed coming through now in the flavor but the aroma is really unpleasant. Silky mouthfeel, decent to medium body.

Bottle in the bathtub. Black with tan head. Sweet deep roasted chocolate malts, massive brandy, soy sauce, green apple, charcoal, black ink, seaweed. Big sweet and bitter, big boozy and big dry finish, umami chewy dry yet juicy teriyaki beef jerky notes. Full body and soft carbonation. --- Beer merged from original tick of Barrel Project 18.03 on 18 Jun 2018 at 20:59 - Score: 7. Original review text: Black with tan head.

Stark malzig-holziger Beginn. Geringe Süße, etwas alkoholisch, vollmundig. Die intensive Malzigkeit ist dennoch nicht drückend, cremig, etwas Espresso. Brandy, der Alkohol bleibt angedeutet, langer Nachhall. Sehr gut! 10/13/11/13/10/12

Bottle from de Caigny. Pitch black, medium frothy head. Aroma of chocolate, raisin and some vanilla. After a short while, some boozy green apple opens up. Quite boozy in taste, chocolate sweetness, raisin, malty bitterness, slight green apple. Bit hot alcohol, that is slightly dominant, but the solid base RIS with sorachi ace fights back. When it wins, its great, when the booze is winning, its a bit too much.
