Poured from 473mL can (2022 vintage). Lightly hazed amber orange with full beige head. Nose has lots of raisin with a bit of oak, quite nice. Taste does have a feint phenolic note with some decent oak. Maybe the next vintage will be better, has good potential.

Hazy amber-brown, with a thick head. This one grabs you with an anglo-bw aroma full of dried fruits and medium-dark sugars. Soft body, sultanas, kayısı, slowly unfolding bourbon dropping vanillins on the tongue, and finally a splash of cheap brandy. Yeah, the finish is a bit of a let down, not the least because it brings out some unfortunate phenols, too. OK, this probably needs to be dialed in a touch.

473mL can, pours a hazy dark amber orange with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out toffee, dark dried fruits, and a touch of bourbon barrels. Flavour is rich and malty, with lots of bready malt, toasted caramel, and a touch of bourbon barrels to round things out. Clean, robust and well-structured. Excellent.

473 ml can. Pours a dark mahogany with light head. Aromas of oak, raisins, dry toffee, and biscuity malts. Soft flavors of same with oak more intense in the finish. Quite nice.
