(Can) Pours black with tiny brown head. Good aroma of dark toffee, dark roast grains, some lovely wood notes, a bit of booze, some smoky hints and maybe a hint of autolysed yeast. Fantastic mouthfeel. Full bodied, thick, smooth and sticky with fine bright tingly carbonation. The taste is pretty awesome, rich and complex. There’s plenty of rich sweetness but well balanced. The sweetness has dark toffee flavours. The balance comes from dark roast grain bitterness and booze. There’s pleasant woody notes floating around in the flavour profile. I also get a hint of autolysis. Awesome. Very hard to put down despite the richness and the alcohol. Even before the taste of one mouthful has ebbed you want another.
