Bottled, I think it was a 2014. Dark pour, little head, the cherry comes through quite a bit.

16oz can shared at home. Black color, small coffee colored head. smells coffee, vanilla, roasty, spices. Very nice smell. full body, light carbonation. tastes coffee, peppery, vanilla, nutty, spices. finishes lightly roasty bitter with notes of coffee, pepper and spices. Rather on the dry and bitter side, rather coffee forward, pretty nice one overall

16oz bottle shared at home. Black color, small coffee colored head. smells bourbon, vanilla, soy sauce, spices, light oak. Nice to very nice smell. full body, light carbonation. tastes vanilla, spices, nutty, light bourbon. finishes very balanced between sweet and bitterness with notes of vanilla, nuts and spices. Very nice one, but overly expressive

Bottled 750ml. -Courtesy of Marko, shared with him & Hrabren. Brownish coloured, small beige head, berries and light caramel in the nose. Tartish fruity, dried fruits, light barrel and acetic touch in the finish. Bit funky.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear copper with an amber hue and a light tan head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has a sweet smoke and oak note with sweet grains and bread backing. Flavor has sweet grains and a bit of cookie with a bit of smoke and oak in the finish.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear straw yellow with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has lots of straw with a bit of hay, an hint of lemon and a touch of sweet grain coming through. Flavor is hay forward with growing straw and a bit of sweet grain backing.
