500mL bottle, pours an opaque dark reddish brown with a small tan head. Aroma of dark fruits, alcohol, brown sugar, light whiskey, and honey. Flavour of honey, whiskey, dark fruits, brown sugar and booze. Palate finishes with honeyed whiskey and phenols. ABV is hidden quite well, leaving just a slight burn on the aftertaste. Very enjoyable.

Bottle from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours dark brown/black with a foamy/creamy 3 finger tan head. Aroma of slightly sour chocolate. Med body. Flavor is smooth burnt malt, chocolate and a little milk sugar. Seemingly finishing a tad sour, but the chocolate and malt pretty much submerges that. Nice drink. Suddenly it seems a bit dry and almost astringent. ?

Nez malté de caramel sucré, fruité (raisins légrement vineux, léger de cerises, traces de prunes), léger de chocolat avec des notes de sirop d’érable, de sucre brun, d’alcool et de réglisse noire. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture légèrement sirupeuse et aux petites notes liquoreuses. Goût fruité sucré (cerises noires, raisins sucrés légèrement vineux, traces de petits fruits confits et de prunes rouges) accompagné de faibles notes de réglisse noire lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute très rapidement un goût malté de caramel sucré aux faibles notes brûlées avec des notes de chocolat noir, de sirop d’érable et de sucre brûlé. Parallèlement, l’on retrouve un moyen goût d’alcool réchauffant aux notes liquoreuses jusqu’en finale avec des notes de houblon herbeux. Post-goût moyen-long, léger-moyen amer d’alcool avec un moyen goût fruité (moût de raisins et de cerises) ainsi que des notes rôties et de chocolat noir.
