Daffodil and lilly bouquet with marshmallow peep accents, not strong. Cloudy amber, thick sticky yellow head. Lilly flavor, mild malt sweetness. Medium body, soft carbonation, fabulously smooth. Tasty and satisfying, good balance, not much complexity.

Bottle gigantic thanks to the man, the myth, the pervert, Jack L. It pours jet black with a dark tan head. The nose is rich roast, espresso coffee, oily, earth, wood, toffee, marshmallow, fruit cake, nougat, vanilla, toasty coconut and coffee liqueur. The taste is rich, oily, deep roast, dark chocolate, espresso coffee, charred wood, nougat, toffee, fruit cake, mild acidity, warming alcohol, earth, light spice and molasses with a lingering rich roasty finish. Full body, fine carbonation and oily mouth-feel. Rich and decadent. Pretty drinkable. As good as this style gets.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to Jack. Pours thick black with a creamy brown head. The aroma is quite strong, with lots of charred wood up front, then secondary notes of dark chocolate and maple syrup. Big sweet flavor, oily, with bittersweet chocolate, baking cocoa, torched wood, earth, more maple syrup, figs, some coffee grounds. Full bodied, chewy, with moderate carbonation. Warm finish with loads of sticky chocolate sauce, well roasted malts, vanilla, char, maple, espresso, raisins, figs. Delicious. Robust yet still exceedingly drinkable. Exceptional.
