Bottle at share: pours dark brown with beige head. Aroma is cognac, malty, earthy. Taste is slightly sweet, earthy, sort of dry. Nice barrel treatment.

500 ml bottle from Kane Direct, 12/21/22. Murky darker brown color with a thin head. Big whiskey and wood on the aroma. Dark fruit, raisin, caramel and a little roast. Boozy (but not overwhelming considering the ABV) and a little sweet. A good amount going on here and a pretty good beer.
