Bottle from a local bottle shop. Woody aroma with vanilla, cognac, oak, red fruit, grape, dark malt. Moderate to medium sweet, light alcohol in the conclusion. Medium body. Nice woody aspect, tasty notes of French Cognac.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours an almost clear nutty brown with no head. Delicious dark dried fruit, brown sugars and Cognac soaked wood. Rich, sweet body - but not overly sweet. The Cognac and the wood is very distinct and super delicious matching the base beer perfectly. There's a slight, finishing tartness but it doesnt really disturb the overall impression. I suspect the ABV could be quite a bit higher than the 11% higher stated. 131222
