21st May 2022 A light haze on this dark amber brown beer, small tan head. Nose of ripe fruity bourbon and a touch of dank wood. Airy palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. The malts, such as they are, bring a trace of creamy sweetness and an even lighter touch of toffee. The main feature here, front, centre and every other angle available - bourbon! Spicy ripe fruit bourbon, a little dank wood and a little barrel induced vanilla. Some fruit liqueur vibes on the alcohol spicy finish. Intense. Good fun.

Bottled. Dark brown with beige, lasting head. Tobacco, leather, ash, dried fruit. A bit too ashy for my liking. Some sweetness from a bit of caramel and dried fruit.

Bottle. Pure imperial stout. Leaning more towards peated tones maybe (what I don't mind at all). Great sipper

Bottle. Naaah. Not bad. Not great west coast showcase. Balancing somewhere on the edge maybe I would call it classic DIPA. Still nice though
