Bottle shared by ClarkVV--thanks, Clark! Opaque, inky black with nice viscosity. Aroma is bourbon over dark fruit, caramel, spice. Taste is strong dark fruit, bourbon (with heat), spice, dark sugar. Thick texture, full bodied, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Bourbon is a bit too prominent along with heat and hard to find specific flavors but maybe I have some palate fatigue after 15+ barleywines/stouts in the last 24 hours.

375mL bottle drunk 7/26/25.
Clear, dark. Garnet and dark mahogany. Tan head to ring quickly.
Burnt toffee, vanilla, rich raisin and milk chocolate. Oaky, but not hot or too oaky. Fruity and spicy with lingering toffee and such. I'm not getting any booze though it's peppery and the strength is certainly sensed.
Wow, that's a wild ride. Big, spicy, peppery, acidic, strong, intense, rich, etc....It's definitely mega-flavorful with some strong barrel and a bit of heat on the very end, though it's not raw or sharp. Cherry, vanilla, dried fudge and a sticky, rich texture with pretty good attenuation. I gotta tell ya, this doesn't seem too much in any one area. There's a shit ton of barrel strength, but it's lovely. Seems to have attenuated very nicely.

473ml can. Hazy, orange, dark golden colour with average, thick, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Rather cautious, fruity hoppy aroma, hints of grapefruit and orange, a touch of kiwi fruit, oaty background. Taste is oaty malty and fruity hoppy, slightly bitter alcoholic, notes of grapefruit, grapefruit rind, mandarine; minimally warming, alcoholic finish.
Creamy texture, smooth, super soft and silky palate with dry, minimally pungent edges, fine, dense, prickly carbonation.
Excellent mouthfeel, tremendous creaminess, well crafted, but more or less disappointing concerning hop flavours, a tad too boozy - hoped for more.

Also LCI/FLM, but it was expensive so checking it in. Thanks Mike! Won't let me tag you cause this app hasn't been updated in over 5 years usability-wise! Anchorage bananas for days.

375ml bottle, 2024 vintage, thanks Craig and Sarah! Chocolate aroma with notes of caramel, roasted malt, toffee, treacle, molasses, vanilla, bourbon and oak. Pours deep brown with a thin mocha brown head that has no retention and very little lacing. Starts with rich roasted malt, chocolate, toffee, treacle and oak flavors as well as having a rich, full body and slick, viscous mouthfeel. Finishes impeccably smooth with caramel, molasses, vanilla and noir flavors as well as a good amount of warming booziness at the very end. Complex and flavorful, an excellent sipper that hides the high alcohol very well.

As thickly sweet and delicious as always, truck load of boozy chocolate caramel, but smooth as ever for me. Delish.
