Can from Stacks (?). Hazy dark brown, thin, beige head. Intense aroma of tobacco, mocha, nougat, toasted almonds, dark honey, dried fig & date, toffee, brandy. Taste has sweet fig, date & prune in a thick malt profile offering toffee, dark honey, some toast, a whiff of coconut and indeed subtle smoke. Peppery hops introduce the finish where more layers of dried fruits, biscuit, toast and smoke pass by, topped off with a warming dash of peated whisky alcohol. Medium to full body, oily texture, sot carbonation. Moreish and layered, excellent!
