16oz can from Tavour. Dark brown pour, clear, finely beaded beige head. A big sweet, boozy blast hits the nose first, cola, spicy. Taste leads with whiskey barrel, rye, sweet, woody, figs, rum. Even at 8.3%, it brings a lot of warmth. Seems a bit thin and a surprisingly fast finish.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark mahogany with a head that vanished nearly instantaneously. Aroma of interesting dark fruit with some rye spice notes. Full bodied. Flavor is darkish roasty malt (not burnt or toasted) with a reminder of pomegranate seeds. There are hints of chocolate and some rye spice notes. Not getting wood - just the rye. Very satisfying flavor and heat intensity. Didn't even notice heat til I thought of it.
