500ml (thanks a lot, Josh!) @ Sales Force. Appearance: almost black with a beige head. Aroma: malty, a bit boozy, oak, some dark fruits. Taste: thick, nice booze, a lot of charred oak, and some very nice prominent and bright fruity notes (coming from the Hand of Glory probably?). Finishes with charred oak and nice sweetness. Overall: good one.

Dark brown. Not much head. Lots of bourbon on the nose, dark sugars. The body is full, rich and sweet. Big bourbon character, toasty oak, and a soft dark sugar body with mellow fruits. Sticky. Excellent.

500mL bottle, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma has a nice smoky bourbon barrel character, medium roast, some oak, and a touch of earthiness. Flavour is rich and complex, with lots of sticky dark sugars, big bourbon notes, some booze, and more brown sugar. Lots of sticky sugars and tasty bourbon to round things out. Perhaps not the masterpiece I was expecting, but it's undoubtedly tasty.
