I Draught /I Dense dark-beige head, fed by fine, lively carbonated jet-black beer; very lacey. Smelling quite sweet, just a bit of smoke, quite roasted. But cloying sweet seems to threaten, with vanilla in force and Bourbon, of course. Sweet, vanilla², sweet chocolate, hint of musk, tobacco. And lots of roast, caramelized. Bar of chocolate with a shot of Bourbon. Warming up, a hint of nutmeg. Very well-bodied, ultra long-lasting flavours, alcoholheat. Somehow, I expected more from this. The Bourbon here lends more sweetness, than it gives complexity.

Clearly oxidized,old butter,hints of dough,old barrel,spoiled coconut chips,no hops & malt support,restrained aroma,lack of bourbon

On tap. Pours black with moderate tan head. Aromas of black coffee, whisky and dry roasted malts. Flavors follow same with emphasis on whisky and acidic malts.

Zwart bier zonder schuim. Smaak is bitterzoet en kruidig met overduidelijk de ceder en iets wat op tijm lijkt. Verder iets van koffie en bittere chocolade. Aparte smaak maar best aangenaam.

Black with lasting head. Aroma and flavour have a tonne of oregano or thyme type herbs. Exceptionally herbal. Interesting but over the top

Bottle from Mallorn, many thanks, at tasting with Gurthnar, Cuso and MisoW. Malty and light hoppy aroma, light citrus fruit and caramel notes. Full body, malty bitter finish with light hoppy notes. Ok.
