Pours black with a small head. Aroma is licorice, oak casks, char coal, soy sauce and a little bit of whisky. Flavour is sweet licorice, oak cask and warming whisky. Despite the strenght it manages to stay quite balanced.

Bottleshare at CBJ, thanks to Cloin for the can. Near clear dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth palate
, mildly sweet. Good ripe fruits, rich. Smooth finish. Mildly bitter linger. Tidy.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is strong whiskey with oak, roasted malt, liquorice, some dark chocolate, soy sauce, alcohol. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet, light bitter, bit boozy finish. Medium to full body. Boozy with lots of whiskey, bit warming, heavy.
