(Bottle) Dark brown colour, almost black with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of chocolate, dark bread, coffee, liquorice, toffee, whisky and mild hints of peat. Malty, roasted taste with crisp-bread, milky chocolate, toffee, liquorice, whisky, wood and a balanced roasty bitterness in the finish. Full body, with a certain sweetness. Really tasty and quite harmonious. Distinct, but well balanced, whisky touch. Great beer!

Bière bouteille 33cl trouvée à Bieres des Halles à Lille. Robe noire, mousse crème/caramel éphémère, carbonatation faible. Arômes de chocolat, café, bois, vin, whisky/bourbon, très gourmand. Bouche sur le sucre, le chocolat, le vin et la barrique. Texture huileuse, liquoreuse. L'alcool est étonnamment discret, ce qui est plutôt bienvenu. Longeur en bouche moyenne, ça retombe plus vite qu'on l'aurait voulu. Une très bonne bière de dessert même si on aurait aimé un peu plus de complexité !
