Bottle [label says one of 2600 bottles, release date 2/2015] from trade @ home shared with Dutchdrebus. Opaque pitch black color, medium sized dark brown head that diminishes after a short while. Aroma is malts, soft roast, soft liquor influence initially, more after a short while, some alcohol. Taste malts, firm roast, again quite boozy, is this only 8.5% ABV? Tastes more boozy than 8.5% ABV, not very sweet like I would have expected but more whiskey liquor influences instead of sweetish bourbon. Quite sharp and bold sort of speak. Texture is thinner than I expected, not smooth oily bourbon, body is medium, carbonation is lightly fizzy. Nice, but not as good as I had hoped.
