I got a 33 cl bottle from bierhandelwillem some time ago and appreciate them for that. Whisky barrel aging usually is a positive for me, just saying. Let us see if that holds up now. I'm using my Delirium snifter this evening, the cap is pulled and I pour. The appearance is a semi-transparent dark gold body finished by a steadily rebuilt skim of completely white foam. I smell yeast esters, grain and yellow fruit of some sort. Oh yeah, it's sort of boozy also. The taste is really pretty fine. White bread, honey, nectarines, malt, yeastiness again, vanilla and whisky. Rather sweet with a bare amount of bitterness. Some depth in the sensation, attributable to the whisky and the high alcohol content I suspect. I stand by my first impression, a pretty good brew.
