7/11/2022. Can from The Oak Barrel, Sydney enjoyed at Rydges. Pours black with a small beige head. Aroma of chocolate, toffee, roasted malt, coffee, light peat, mild whisky, hints of liquorice, treacle, chocolate cake and plum pudding. Moderate sweetness and medium roasted bitterness, with subtle peaty woody notes. Full bodied, very smooth, low carbonation. I’m not a heavy peated beer fan, so for me this one is pitched very well.

I nice beer but not quite a great one. Aromas of chocolate, cream, spice and peat. The pine and grapefruit in the mouth do more to undermine the sweet stout flavours than to balance them.

(Can) Pours clear pale amber with small white head. Pleasant subtle aroma of fresh bread with hints of candy and flowers. Light body with plenty of somewhat fizzy carbonation. Subtle pleasant flavour with some gentle peppery bitterness over some bready malt. Easy drinking.

Can. Deep gold. Pine needle nose. Much sweeter than I expected. Plays off ok against resin, but a bit more bitterness would delight.

Can, cellared for about 20 months. Still a big, big beer. Dark as night. Raisins, coffee and toffee on nose. A party of such flavours with some chocolate and booze aplenty. Lovely lingering notes too. Glad I have a couple of more of these stashed away.
