Hazy brown colour, minimal off-white head, practically only some lacing on the top of the ’beer’; aroma of raisins, dried figs and plum soaked in cognac, plum jam, vanilla, walnut liqueur, herbal notes, whisky, biscuit, and burnt sugar; taste of cherry bonbon made with cognag and dark chocolate, raisins, burnt plum jam, overripe sweet dried figs, walnut cake, vanilla, caramel, herbal liqueur, whisky, oak barrel and slight acetone notes; spicy alcoholic aftertaste; I’m fully amazed and have completely and desperately fallen in love!

Bottle 330 ml. 2014. Dark brown color, with noisy brown foam. Aroma: luxury tones of vanilla, barrels, chocolate liquor, dried fruits and port wine, dried apricot, alcohols, old bourbon. Taste: sweet, liqueur and vanilla, powerful, warming, well balanced malty symphony with port wine, dried apricots, raisins and bourbon, chocolate with a slightly toasted nuts. Bravo!
