500ml @ Ryan's.
Aroma: American oak, bold, some dark fruits, a bit of brown sugars.
Taste: along the same lines, smooth, a little of booze.
Overall: good one.
P.S. It's getting a bit perfumy while warming up. Not sure wth is that, so lowering the rating a bit.

Poured from 500mL bottle (bottle lists abv as 13.3%; "Spending over 20 months in Four Roses bourbon barrels"). Near black with minimal beige head. Soft dark sugars, very smooth bourbon character, feint hint of toffee, dangerously smooth. As it warms, it begins to exhibit some light perfumey floral vanilla notes (which actually detracts a little bit). Gives imperial stout-barley wine blend vibes. Enjoyable.

Bottle shared for my birthday tasting. Almost black, no head. Massive roasted malts, blackberries, bourbon, orange, coconut, licorice, oak, plums, thick grains. Very fruity and roasted, huge barrel. Quite sweet, less bitter. Super thick body. Amazing.

Thanks for the share Jens! Dark sweet roasted malty with lots of chocolate and some caramel and toffee like sweetness, full bodied, vanilla and coconut into the lingering malty finish. Gorgeous.

Draught as Barrel Aged Base Nectar, 13 % abv, at Jernteppet Ølfestival, first day. A coal black body under a patchy beige head, scattered lacing. Rich aromas of dark malts, grainy chocolate with a bourbon touch, woody. Vanilla chocolate taste nicely combined with coconut, earth, and bourbon. Long-live chocolate bourbon ending. Full bodied. Slow sipper even on a beer festival. Excellent. (Hammerfest 16.08.2019).
