Bottle picked up at BrewDog Inverurie. It pours darkest brown to black with a small dark tan head which doesn't hang about too long. The aroma is rich roasted malt, intoxicating, bitter - sweet, dark chocolate cake, toasted coconut, vanilla, toasted marshmallow, bounty bar, dusty bourbon barrels,rocky road, milky coffee and jammy wagon wheel. The taste is slick, oily, rich roasted malt, bitter - sweet, big slap of warming booze, bourbon soaked oak, toffee, some spice, nuttiness, cacao nibs, praline, vanilla, toasted coconut, rocky road, nougat, gooey marshmallow, tunnocks teacakes, coffee grounds and mocha with a warming and drying bourbon soaked oak finish. Fulsome body, fine carbonation and oily mouth feel. The description suggests this may be too sweet, but it isn't. The heat and drying oak keep the sweetness in check. Fun stuff.
