TCBW2026. 2025 vintage. Black colour, s,all brown head. Aroma is toffee, some nutty and roasted tones with mild vanilla, oak as well as some slight toffee tones to it. Flavour is quite similar to the aroma. Big and bold. Highly enjoyable, though a bit on the sweet side of things.

Fles thuis geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een diep donkerbruin tot zwart bier met een volle bruinige schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van Bourbon. De smaak is wrang, fruitig zuur en Bourbon achtig.

2023 version , last bottle at the loom.
Tart and sour aroma with roasted malty notes, smoked notes
Flavor is bourbon and tartness from the wood, if you like a strong black tart ba imp stout this one is not bad . Quite co.plex

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is roasted malt, huge Bourbon, oak, cocoa, vanilla, caramel, chocolate, alcohol, dried fruits, touch of marzipan and fudge. Flavour is quite sweet with some light bitter notes in the finish. Plenty of boozy Bourbon. Body is full. Fairly complex with tons (barrels) of Bourbon. Very good, heavy Bourbon...

2023 version drank December 2024. Black with a medium, dark tan head. Tons of sweet malt, chocolate, oak, nuts, red berries and molasses in the nose. Unique. Full, slick body. Flavor loses some of the uniqueness but retains intrigue. Chocolate, some burnt malt, oak, whiskey, nutty, dried fruit. Finish is somewhat sweet without being cloying. A fun brew.
