Bottle shared in HW - sourced from Master of the Malts. Pours black-brown with a small, foamy beige head. Medium sweet flavour with nice layered chocolate, soft roast, restrained toasted coconut, some oily vanilla, light booze, bourbon. Full bodied, oily and lightly chewy, with fine carbonation. Finishes with mild alcohol warmth, more gooey coconut, fudge, vanilla sauce, some raisins. Really tasty gear.

Tasting at Chez Cloin. Thanks to LKS. Semi opaque dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Thin dark malts but tasty - dark chocolate fudge, fruity dark malts, ripe fruits. Light dry finish. Fruity and rich, just a bit dry and thin on the palate.

@ Brouwerij de Molen (volunteers gathering), thanks for sharing John & Petra! Pours a black colour and a brown head with short retention. Aroma's: sweet, honey-ish, bourbon, oak, vanilla. Retronasal it's sweet with vanilla and light red fruit, not particularly recognizable as cherries to me. Flavour is rather sweet with some fruitiness. Medium bodied.
