Marshal Zhukov's - Victory Parade from Cigar City Brewing

7.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 8.5
Bottle. Has a few years on it. Pours a very dark hue, almost pitch black, a small white head that dissipates A big nose, mostly some barrel, dark fruit. Light heat, dark fruit, leather, figs for sure. Sweet elements, probably the berries, dark essence of fruit. Damn good. Would be a bit better fresh. Sort of reminds me of Expedition which is my favorite. Good.

500mL bottle #847, edition 16, shared by Chalumeaux on 11/17/24. Undetermined clarity, dark. Thin head. It's like Hunah, but you can actually smell the maple in the barrel. Clean, not boozey, chocolatey, tasteful adjuncts. Vanilla a nice addition. Nutty, chewy, well-attenuated, rich but not boozey or sugary. Medium body, mellow bourbon and rich maple. The adjuncts are delicious and moderate. Maple and nuttiness. This is rich, balanced and deliciously spicy.
