Beaverfest. Day 1. Keg. Clear brown beer, small tan head. Smooth palate, fairly dry. Smooth dry dark malts. Dry thin dark chocolate malt. Touch of coconut. Mellow dark fruits. Barely there. Light dry finish brings a little spice. Nice flavour but the body is thin and dry.

Keg at Beavertown Extravaganza 2017. It pours opaque darkest brown with a small light tan head. The aroma is rich, sweet chocolate caramel, toffee, millionaires shortbread, crunchy, slick, oily, maltesers and cocoa. The taste is slick, sweet, roasted malt, maltesers, mars bar, chocolate, toffee, oaky bourbon, toasted brown sugars, booze, earthy coffee, damp wood, leather and light spice with some alcohol warmth through the finish. Full body and fine carbonation. A bit earth and woody after a while. Decent enough, but it didn't wow me.

500mL bottle, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is loaded with toasted coconut upfront, followed by bourbon barrels and plenty of alcohol. Flavour is along the same lines, with bourbon barrels, vanilla and light coconut. Heavy and well-balanced, with lots of depth. Excellent.

500mL bottle, pours a cloudy dark orange with a small beige head. Aroma is loaded with gin barrels, floral notes and light farmhouse yeast. Flavour is similar, with lots of juniper, floral notes, and light booze. Floral and ginny. Meh.

A pour from the bottle on Black Christmas V. Pours a very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma is berry-ish bourbon. Similar taste with some butter and chocolate notes. Nice.
