Tap@Taphouse, Copenhagen (Stone TTO 27/11/2016) - dark brown with off-white head. Roasted and toasted malty with dark dried fruit shred, some caramel and treacle sweetness, awash with bourbon infused oaky wooden notes, light charred smoke, light vanilla nuance in the warming finish. Gorgeous.

Draft. A dark brown beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of alcohol, over ripe fruits, and bourbon. The flavor is sweet with notes of alcohol, malt, caramel, bourbon, and smoke, leading to a dry, bitter, and alcoholic finish.

Mahogony with a small beige head. Aroma had plenty of bourbon, roasted malt and caramel. Vinious flavor with plenty of sweet bourbon, vanilla, toasted malt, caramel and toffee. Finished sweet. Quite harmonic. Loved it.
