Bottle shared in Canary Wharf - big thanks to the team and especially Wingman for organising. Pours deep black-brown with a creamy khaki head. Big sweet flavour without quite being cloying, some molasses, vanilla, raisins, lots of figs and dates, bourbon, background cocoa and roast, understated boozy warmth. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, a little sticky, more dark fruits, berries, very slight fruity tang, more bourbon, toffee, figs. Absolutely delicious.

Xmas Boozy Bottleshare. Thanks to the team, particularly Wingman. Opaque dark brown black beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, slightly soft, decent fine carbonation. Soft malts, some dark chocolate Impy vibes but also a decent amount of toffee caramel. Big smooth bourbon, big and ripe fruity and mildly spicy. Smooth slightly sticky finish. Wonderfully rich.
