In the line by M&F waiting for the overrated TG stuff. Thanks, Chris S. for forwarding the box!
Heavy American oak, black chocolate. Taste is very intense, very woody, almost no sweetness. Good one.

Pre-MBCC 2025 tasting with Chris (thx, for the beer, dude!), Farees, and Shane.
A lot of booze, bit also nice dark fruits, more smooth and rich than the components.
Nice one!

Very boozy, dark fruits, nice candy caramel notes. Taste is along the same lines, has better body than Weller one.
Nice one, but it's definitely overrated with 4.7+
