16 oz. can, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma has a nice whiskey barrel character, light molasses, and some roast. Flavour has some complex whiskey barrel character upfront, with subdued roast, dry sugars, booze, and more whiskey character. Finishes fairly hot but with a great whiskey character. Very nice.

Bottle from Tavour I think: pours black with beige head. Aroma is coconut, rum, dark chocolate, vanilla. Taste is not too sweet. Heavy notes of rum and coconut. Very nice.

Can (from Alko Prisma Hemstrand). Hazy yellowish golden colour with a small white foamy head. Aroma is floral, small citrus and some dank tones. Flavour is dank citrus, some oats, biscuits and some fruity and floral tones. Refreshing. Feels more fresh than the other Epic that showed up on alko.

Can (from Alko Prisma Hemstrand). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is floral, fruity, some nectar and mild wooden tones. Flavour is floral, nectary, some grainy and mild herbal tones with toffee as well. Grassy aftertaste. (no printed BBE date on can, the one there is, is on the label printed and tucked on the can by the importer stating bbe 10/2024. Already now this feels somewhat old...

16 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear dark orange-bronze color with a large khaki head and great retention. Very good lacing. Gorgeous pour. Pale malt and light caramel aroma. A little more caramel flavor than the aroma, with a slightly acidic finish. Malt dominant, as it should be. Good flavor, but I wish the finish was cleaner. Medium body. Medium-light carbonation. Not bitter.
