330ml bottle @ Admiral Benbow, Shrewsbury shared with Ewan. Pours a very dark amber, off-white head. Strong aroma of bourbon whisky, continuing to taste with hints of almond and butterscotch. A noticeably lighter wee heavy body compared to, say, a bourbon BA porter, gentle amber malts. Good clobber.

Fast gone whitish head, leaving some lace over veiled yellow beer, ligthly carbonated. Banana, almonds, amandine, rosewater. Bit blossom aroma. Sweetish with a light metallic tang. Again almondy. Warming up, cardboard, getting dull. Bit watery feel, if rather slick at the same time. I'm not over the moon with this. Txs to Stef!

Ayrshire Coastal Walking Mini Break Beer#24. Bought in Ayr the town. Hoppy, feeling quite strong but has decent tropical fruity notes verging on sweetened. A little too carbonated in texture.

Thanks to Silke. She didn’t realize this was so old when she bought it. Black with a creamy, beige head. Charred grains, chocolate, oak, vanilla. Taste is roasted bitter with sweet, fudge undertones. Long charred bitter finish with the whisky finally making itself felt—in a restrained manner. Body to the full side of medium, mild carbonation. Well balanced, smooth sipper. Time has been kind to this one. Excellent.

Sesongstart på Mi2 Cardinal, hvor vi alle stilte med topptrimmet lever og tilsvarende pågangsmot. Brunsvart med fint skum som varer lenge. Nydelig anslag, og Johan synes at den er NESTEN like god som en av sine egne! Avrundet, myk og fyldig med kaffe og chokolader, Mildt humlet, en klassestout uten dikkedarer. 0,33 bx.

Shared can at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours black with beige head. Aroma of dark chocolate, notes of coffee. Tastes slightly sweet, balanced by bitterness and sourness from roasted malt. Medium bodied.
