On tap at More - Villa Park, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma is rich, with big bourbon barrels, moderate roast, toffee, and brown sugar. Flavour is extremely sweet, syrupy, and yet rough due to the booze; there�s a harsh roastiness to it, with molasses, and plenty of hot bourbon. It�s not all that well-integrated. Fun experiment but this isn�t that refined.

On tap at More - Villa Park, pours jet black with a small brown head. Aroma is dominated by the pecans, with a sturdy roasted malt base and a touch of burnt sugars. Flavour is rich and potent, with intense pecans, roasted malt, and dark sugars in wonderful cohesion. That pecan character is really captured well, with sturdy base malts and just enough sugars to complement. Excellent.

On tap at More - Villa Park, pours black with an amber tinge and a small beige head. Aroma is pretty laid back, with very gentle roast and subtle earthy hops. Flavour is strange�I think there�s diacetyl in here, which I don�t usually pick up in a black IPA�gentle roast and subtle hops can�t save this. Ugh.

On tap at More - Villa Park, pours an opaque peachy yellow with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of yuzu and green tea upfront, with gentle salt and lacto. Flavour is strange, bringing out salt, yuzu, and gentle green tea. Strange effect of the yuzu � I don�t think this ultimately works but it�s structurally well-made.

On tap at More - Villa Park, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has gentle hops, sweet biscuity malt, and a touch of booze. Flavour is lightly sweet, with biscuity malt, grassy hops, and finishing gently sweet and messy. Not sure what they were going for � mix of an IPL and a swill Euro strong lager? Whatever it is, not great.

On tap at More - Villa Park, pours a clear copper amber with a small beige head. Aroma has plenty of woody hops, toasted bready malt, and a little pine. Flavour is dry, hoppy and woody, with lots of that Chinook coming out that gives it a real nice woodiness; finishes dry and assertively bitter, but still with a nice bready malt base. Excellent.

On tap at Mikerphone, pours jet black with a small brown head. Aroma is wonderful, with intense bourbon barrels, lots of wood, toasted oak, and medium roast. Flavour is very woody, with lots of bourbon barrels, lots of wood, oak, and roast. Woody, oaky and endless barrel depth. The near-18% isn�t detectable at all. Insanely smooth and decadent. Incredible.
