Немного разочеровался. Очень тяжело, бочка овер сильная, шоколад сильный, но без сладости особой. Классика вроде, но ожидал большего.

Too boozy in a harsh way. Some vanilla and milk chocolate. Also mushrooms. Almost savoury. Good example of a beer that is not well balanced.

From tap at Bierfestival Groningen 2019. Big bourbon barrel aroma with vanilla, roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, some fruity hints, mild booze. Medium sweet with a roasty bitterness. Full body, rich. Pretty velvety and balanced, wonderful stuff.

Bottle. Pitch black colour, small beigeish brown head. Aroma is chocolaty, roasted alcohol and mild glue tones and blackcurrant. Flavour is liquorice, blackcurrant and some alcohol, roast and some sweet bourbon tones. Smooth and kind of silky too. Lovely sipper.

Bottle @MBCC 2024, Green Session, courtesy of the US neighbours. Oily black, no head. Roast, choc, bourbon and coffee aroma. Bourbon boozy, rich malty flavour, sweet bourbon. Lasting boozy buzz.

Sweet and boozy, Hershey's chocolate sauce and bourbon. That's really it, but very nice anyway.
