12.7 oz bottle from AbeerVinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark plum with no foam. Aroma is wonderful of malt, licorice, plum, vanilla. Body is dense with tickling carbonation. Taste is intense in sweetness and bitterness for a full mouth. Finish is long and persistent.

My goodness, caramel and bourbon flood. Strong black tea nose. Dunno where the peaches are but some fruity notes.

Tap at Babajan. Dark brown with almost no head. Full, sweetish with raisins, bourbon, dark rye bread. A bit of oak and earth in there too.

(Bottle) clear, bright orange brown colour with a small beige head; aroma of peach liqeour, jam; balanced flavour with a long, light bitter sweet finish; thick palate

375 ml bottle into snifter, 2017 vintage bottling. Pours hazy very dark brown color with a small dense light khaki head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lasts. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of huge caramel, brown sugar, toffee, raisin, plum, peach, fig, date, apricot, apple, vanilla, bourbon, coconut, toasted oak, marshmallow, brown bread, and herbal black tea; with lighter notes of milk chocolate, cocoa, coffee, fudge, molasses, pepper, and yeast/oak/toasted earthiness. Some booze in the aromas as it warms, but not overwhelming. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of dark/bready/light roasted malt, bourbon barrels, fruity yeast, and peach/black tea notes; with great strength. Taste of huge caramel, brown sugar, toffee, raisin, plum, peach, fig, date, apricot, apple, vanilla, bourbon, coconut, toasted oak, marshmallow, brown bread, and herbal black tea; with lighter notes of milk chocolate, cocoa, coffee, fudge, molasses, pepper, and yeast/oak/toasted earthiness. Light herbal/roast bitterness and bourbon/oak spiciness. Lingering notes of caramel, brown sugar, toffee, dark fruit, peach, apricot, apple, vanilla, bourbon, coconut, toasted oak, marshmallow, brown bread, herbal black tea, light chocolate/fudge/molasses, pepper, and yeast/oak/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready/light roasted malt, bourbon barrels, fruity yeast, and peach/black tea flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness and bourbon/oak spiciness balance; with zero cloying sweetness after the finish. Light-medium carbonation and fairly full body; with a very smooth, creamy, silky, and rich mouthfeel that is fantastic. Lightly slick, sticky, chalky, tannic, and drying. Alcohol is very well hidden; a mildly increasing warmth of 12.5%, with minimal barrel booziness lingering after the finish. Overall this is an incredible English Barleywine/strong ale style. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready/light roasted malt, bourbon barrels, fruity yeast, and peach/black tea flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to sip on for the huge ABV. Very rich and complex. Perfectly balanced malts, bourbon barrels, and fruity Brett C flavors; with nice presence of the peaches/tea, without overwhelming the base beer. Amazing barrel integration; without being overly boozy, tannic, or drying. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.

375 c&c from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours very dark brown with a transient tan smear. Aroma of bourbon and chocolate. Maybe a fruit note. Full bodied. Flavor starts bourbon/chocolate, then some peach moves in. Lots of treacle in a darkish way. Earthy. Not excessively undry. Not at all bitter. Maybe it's what would come from a liquor filled chocolate with bourbon and peach. Maybe the earthiness is Brettiness, but ? Quite delicious.
