Keg at 'It Ain't Much If It Ain't Dutch', 04/03/2026.
Black topped with a khaki cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is smoked malts, charr, roasted tones, cocoa powder, mellow barrel.
Taste comprises good bourbon characteristics, spice, charr, molasses, balanced smoke.
Full bodied, light prickly carbonation but aiding drinkability, semi drying close.
Tidy sipper with a good bourbon spike that balances the smoked elements well.

Keg at If It Ain't Dutch. Dark and opaque cola brown. Thin foamy beige head. Aroma is sweet and boozy with smoke then appearing. Flavourwise the smoked element is more apparent followed by dark coffee and booze. Medium bodied. Slick to oily. Prickly soft fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish.
