Thanks! to Angela. 655 ml. bottle sampled @ ZZT XIII. Character on the label looks a bit like Eddie (Iron Maiden mascot). Almost clear orange, little bubbles. Nose is big pine resin, light onion, resin, light caramel & harsh pine resin & medicinal hops. Taste is hugely bitter, harsh medicinal & weed bitterness, pine, raw,… Big pine oil body. The bitterness is harsh on this one, I almost respect it more than I like it. It is nice but also it is too much for me to fully enjoy.

Taste is smooth, roasty and sweetish with some bourbon, tobacco, vanilla, wood, toffee and oak. Finish is smooth, slick and slightly sweet with some bourbon, tobacco, ash, licorice, toffee, vanilla and oak. Pretty good.
