CBJ Tasting. Can. Dark slightly murky darkest brown. No head. aroma has big chewy malts, dark fruit and a bitter boozy edge. Flavourwise it is booze led. Big and fruity - dark fruit. Molasses. More booze. Medium-thick bodied. Oily. Average carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Yum. Warming.

That’s good, big gear. Rich and meaty semi-dark malts, toffee, honey, berries, booze, vanilla. A little smokey note. Quite drinkable given the heft.

Tasting at CBJ, thanks to me for the can. Near opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth dark toffee malts, a touch of peat. A little malt cream. Ripe fruits and a fair kick of alcohol spice. Intense and drinkable.

Thanks omhper! Black colour, small white head. Aroma is dried fruit, liquorice, some chocolaty and syrupy tones with some plummy tones. Almost a bit stouty, but still more a BW. Flavour is liquorice, some alcohol, mild smoky wooden toens with some plum and chocolate syrup. Lovely. Boozy, but 15.5 % is surprisingly easy going and not all too burning here.
