Can - dark amber pour with moderate lace - low carbonation in the mouth, with a creamy texture - rich malt structure and warm woody barrel throughout, with notes of vanilla and coconut - high abv is masked well, but is just warming enough - dark fruit and caramelized sugars - earthy whisky notes - brined cherry - finish is long and warm - really nice and balanced for something so strong.

Can shared at BMT during Celly Drippins night. This is serious gear. Rich semi-dark mats, stewed fruits, toffee, bourbon, hearty fruit character, moderate booze, a nip of brown sugar, rum, wood, earth. Dangerously drinkable. Super smooth. Absolutely outstanding.

Right. A lot more intense than Now. Sweetish, oaky, caramely and heavy with toffee, barrel, syrup, vanilla, figs, prunes and vinous notes. Complex slow sipper. Nice.

12oz can from Tavour. Dark brown pour, muddy, small bubbly head . Boozy aroma, bourbon, chocolate. Not getting many scotch ale notes due to the bourbon. Thick, heavy

16 oz can. Aroma has notes of pine, alcohol, flowers, bread. Pours lightly hazy copper amber with a two finger beige head with excellent retention. Taste has a high pithy bitterness backed by some candy sweet malt. Velvety mouthfeel.

Taster from can. Just an impression, perhaps. None of the cherry flavor I thought I detected in my first glass so long ago. Greater emphasis on stout, just a slight warming alcohol.
