This baby was aged in our whiskey barrels previously used for aging our imperial stout. The result is very interesting (especially if you compare those two beers). It’s 8 abv beer with a light peaty note on the nose and big wood character from the wooden cask itself. It feels like the beer has penetrated deep inside the wood and got it’s spark there instead of just sitting on the top layers, covered in Scotch.
EBC: 193 – tamsus

330mL bottle, pours black with a humungous tan head. Aroma brings out light wood, toasted malt, and some whiskey. Flavour is along the same lines, with heaps of whiskey, toasted malt, and a little phenolic notes. With this much head, you can tell there's something wrong with the bottle. Needs fixing.

0,33 flaske fra Bulgarsk Mad i Rantzausgade, på hytta sep-17: brunsvart med fint cappucinofarget skum som varer. Godt stekt eplekake, vanilje, mørkbrent kaffe, torv, overmodne solbær og mørkeste sjokolader (80%) er de assosiasjonene jeg får. Nydelig drikke (selv om den bruser litt for mye i munnen), og et varp til 32 kr.
