Can split at Tilt, Bingo-Cotts Convention, picked up from HOTM online 08/07/23. Black with a well presented tan head. Nose is dark malts, spice, charr, ashen nip, mellow spey barrel, dried fruit rinds. Taste comprises dark malts, molasses, spice, booze, dates, raisins, ashen nip. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced boost. Okay BA impy but lacks some depth to the flavour.
