Bottle split at CBC Islington, thanks to LKS, 25/06/18. Black with a well presented tan head. Nose is lIght bourbon trace, spice, chocolate biscuit, dried fruits. Taste comprises mellow bourbon barrel, roast malts, molasses, chocolate, toffee fudge, brown sugar. Medium plus body, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced boost. Ok sipper of an impy but doesn't pull out of third gear for me.

Bottle (2014): Poured a dark black with tan head. Aroma is vinegar infection, know for this year group. Taste is a light funk, Bourbon and smooth chocolate, silky finish. For being infected it was not bad at all, almost seemed meant to be if a person hadn't known otherwise.
