Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A very very dark brown beer with a small most good lasting tan head. Aroma of vanilla, oak, whiskey, strong dark malt. Taste of strong dark roasted malt, coffee, vanilla, wood, whiskey barrel, red fruits, boozy and complex.

Many thanks to kappldav123 for sharing. Deep burned alcoholic beginning. Lots of burned sweetish deep Stout with alcoholic whisky in the back. Not as nice balanced as other versions, here the burned grain and the intense whisky are both a bit too harsh. But nevertheless a great brew - deep with tar and coal, woody sticky whisky and alcohol in the aftertaste.

Bottle looks simple but really good. Beer in the glass deep black, almost no head. Heavy malty and stouty aroma. Starts intense malty, stouty, earthy. Also some notes of bitter balck coffee. Herbal background. Finish well balanced, warming malty. Nice!

Tasting at Matt's
Oily black, kind of thick, and sugary; it has a good dark malt base and dark caramel, but also strong medicine smell, apples, burning mouthfeel, strong tar, medicine again.
Not very good.

330mL bottle, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is rather harsh, with coal, alcohol, roasted malt, and harsh bourbon. Flavour is quite harsh and lacking balance, with soy sauce, booze, harsh bourbon and charcoal. Ugh, I want to like this, but this is very harsh and lacking cohesion. Not too impressive.
