A beautiful, red-brown beer, a head is quite small and light beige. Aroma has dried fruits, apricot plum, maybe also raisins, pine, surprisingly fresh. Taste has dried fruitness, prune, raisin, apricot, lots of pine, strong bitterness. Full bodied. Surprisingly (easily) drinkable, even there are lots of heavy nuancees. Very nice beer.
gave a cheers!

11.2oz bottle. Oaky, leathery. Devolved malts, A lot of depth, the sherry is well incorporated and doesn't stand out in an odd way. A little bit low carbonated at this point. Brown chocolate, red berries, fig, caramel, dank wood. Quite unique and tasty.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Near clear dark brown beer, decent bubbly pale tan head. Airy palate, pretty light and a little dry, reasonable fine minerally carbonation. Thin bodied dark malts, a modicum of dark chocolate. Light fruity whiskey dominates, pleasant but, tastes a tad watered down. Airy finish brings mild whiskey soaked fruits. It's all a bit polite but, by no means bad. Just wanted a bit more body. And Welly.

Nearly black with a thin dark head. Roasted malts, molasses, dark ripe fruits, alcohol, oak, a bit of earth. Medium to thin body. Very warm booze in the finish with some molasses. Dry. Too hot for its own good.

Bottle picked up from TripelB, Worcester and consumed at Jude and Baz's and shared with Baz at Spond, Herefordshire listening to New Music Fix with Nathan Shepherd and Deb Grant on 6Music, Tuesday 3rd March 2026 Dark brown with ruby glints, there was no discernible head. Surprisingly smooth and easy drinking, slightly bitter, hoppy but with a slight fruity twang. The nose has caramel, hedgerow berries, and a little boozy waft. It's warming in the mouth, btw glad that I shared this with Baz. All told a decent eisbock. Score 7.3

Near clear dark brown beer, small bubbly tan head. An airy palate, a little dry, decent fine carbonation. Pretty light bodied dark malts but, rich in a flavour. A little and mildly tangy dark chocolate. Big rounded whisked soaked ripe fruity goodness. A whisper of peat. Some mild oak barrel induced vanilla. Airy finish. Pretty light palate wise but, rich and tasty.

Bottle thanks to Stuu. Pours black with a thin tan head. Aromas of chocolate, leather and faint whisky. For 5 years in a peated whisky barrel you'd expect a bit more smoke and iodine. Taste has a hint. Dark chocolate and roast. Light seaweed.

Bottle thanks to Stuu.
Appearance - deep brown to black and opaque. Thin beige head.
Nose - faint iodine and wood barrel note but with not much of the expected Islay peat smoke.
Taste - saline again, and now some peat with chocolate and dry wood.
Palate - medium to full bodied, dry roast and woody finish.
Overall - good if not as smoky as expected.
