Draught @ Sori Taproom, Helsinki. Sweet, sticky and boozy with loads of bourbon, wood, oak, toffee, syrup, raisins, some vanilla and earthiness. Heavy and warming, a bit too syrupy.

Thanks! Sampled draft @ Billie’s Beer Festival 2018. Day 2. Dark brown. Nose is alcoholic, harsh, boozy, varnish & overripe fruit. Taste is chemical, fizzy, paint also nice sugar but in a very sweet almost cloying way, overripe fruit, chocolate. Some good parts but also excessive in alcohol and sticky sweetness.
