750ml bottle. Pours almost black, thin tan head dissipating immediately. Aroma of sour cherries, chocolate cake, bourbon. Taste of sweet and sour cherry, chocolate, cake, vanilla, dried fruits, light spices, a little bourbon. Full bodied, very smooth. Lovely.

(Draught at Muted Horn, Berlin, 22 July 2018) Black colour with brief, beige head. Malty, roasted, slightly sourish nose with notes of chocolate, cherries, sweet strong espresso and vanilla. Malty, roasted, slightly tart taste with chocolate, cherries, sweet espresso, tonka beans and a balanced cacao bitterness in a sweetish, warming finish. Full body, quite sweet. Chocolate, coffee and tart cherries. What else is needed? Very nice.

Bomber. Nose is cinnamon, chocolate, cherries, big bourbon and vanilla. Sour cherry flavor is nice, with chocolate and bourbony vanilla and way too much cinnamon. Syrupy sweet pasty beer. Meh.

Vom Fass bei der Berlin Beer Week - Cloudwater TapTakeOverParty im Muted Horn 2018-07 getrunken. Dieses mit Kirschsaft und Tonkabohnen gebraute iStout was einige Zeit in einem Heaven Hill Fass lagerte wird klar von vollen Körper und Aromenfeuerwerk von Mokka, Pflaumen, Tonka, Kirschsäure, etwas Honigsüsse. Der Alkohol ist perfekt eingebunden. Hui - was für ein sensationelles Bier.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to Fergus. Pours black with a small, creamy tan head. Interesting aroma, plenty of jammy berries, some chocolate, low roast. Meidum sweet flavour with juicy raspberry, cherry, soft cocoa, minimal roast character, minimal bitterness. Meidum to full bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, some creamy chocolate, more jammy berries, nips of alcohol. Good fun.
