Tap at Salon Piva 04/2025. Malty aroma and taste, roastyness, chocolate, bourbon barrel notes, vanilla, tonka beans notes, medium bitter and sweet. Full body, malty choco bitter sweet finish with bourbon wooden barrel notes. Good.

Bottle, koszi Panni! Pours jet black with beige head that doesnt last long. Nose is big coffee, vanilla and whiskey. Taste is nicely rounded, showing notes of booze, faint earthy notes, some low fruity touch, vanilla and closing with a long lasting sweet boozy whiskey-y and coffee finish. Light to medium body, soft carbo, pretty easy to drink, kinda like a session-impy. Not overcomplex, but everything’s in the right place and the balance is pretty neat.

Bottle at home, koszi Panni! Pours pours copper, thin head. Nose is heavy on the barrels, there’s the vineous, grape-like sherry notes and an uderlying sweet boozyness, and there’s the malty, nutty notes of the base beer. Taste is sweet booze, nuts, raisins, a touch of smoke and the barrels again, fruity sherry and the whisky too. Closes with long rich and sweet boozy finish, has medium to heavy body, and soft carbonation. Tbh I did not expect this to be this good, quelle surprise.
