Chestnut colour, thin head. Rich toffee aroma with a little whisky character. Medium body, a bit hot and headsy, lowish bitterness and medium sweetness. Not my balance, but not unbalanced.

Poured from the tap. Clear amber brown with small beige head. Lots of caramel, stone fruit, only a hint of peat and whiskey. A bit sweet and lacking much depth. Edit: as the beer warmed up the whiskey notes really developed and came through. Still not amazing, but upped my rating from 3.1 to 3.3

650 ml bottle. Pours mahogany with little head. Aromas of biscuity malts, sweet raisins and a bit of soap. Really not much flavour. Very neutral thin malts with light alcohol and finishes with some peat and heat. Like a very watered down very malty whiskey

Murky copper body and good foam, soft burnt caramel aroma. Flavour is deep chocolate syrup and bitter molasses. Full and good oiliness, but again there's that blunt instrument quality to the thing, someone needs to learn to dance.

On tap at Callister, pours a clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma reveals a nice gentle whiskey barrel character, smoky peated malt, and bready caramel. Flavour is barrel-heavy, with lots of whiskey, gentle smoke, heaps of caramel, and a touch of dark fruit. Really nice barrel character and the base beer provides good support. Not too sweet or boozy, with plenty of depth. Surprisingly great.
