12 oz. bottle, pours black with a surprisingly large (though not that big by conventional standards) tan head. Aroma of smoked malts, bourbon barrels, loads of roasted malt and some firepit scents. Flavour brings out smokey roasted malts, campfire, some moderate bourbon barrels, a little vanilla and char. Full-bodied and surprisingly smooth for an 18% ABV beer. Only slightly boozy, full of flavour, but perhaps a tad too smoky. Medium complexity and quite drinkable all things considering. Great stuff.

Bottle thanks to my sister! Pours a cloudy, syrupy very dark brown with no head whatsoever. Aroma has a strong bourbon note with underlying dark grains and deep roasted malts, as well as a hint of dark fruits. Flavor has a combination of dark fruits and roasted malts with a backing strong boozy bourbon note.
