A solid light tan head on a near black body. Nose features fresh coffee, cocoa and cream. A really we balanced IS, leading with fresh coffee, coffee grounds and cocoa. This might be the most powerful presentation of coffee tastes in an IS that I have ever had. With this taste I almost expect to be spitting out coffee grounds as I drink. Solid touches of caramel and roasted malt, and hints of cherry add to the profile. Medium, to medium/thin body with a less rich mouth feel than expected. Taste thins out a bit too quick as well, but still a nice effort.

A dense light tan head over a dark mahogany body. A big sweet nose with toffee, booze, dark berries and hops. If you like big sweet and fruity BWs, this one is for you. Dark molasses, crème brule, prunes, dark berries and fruity hops. A touch of oak and vanilla fill out the taste profile. A rich, creamy mouth feel. Stupendous.

Bottle at home. Opaque black color, full sized fizzy beige to light brown colored head that diminishes fairly quickly. Aroma is malts, sweetness, very odd cake notes. Flavor is similarly odd. Lightly malts, sweetness, odd, cake, candy, vanilla. Very weird mix, very sweet. Rum BA in there? Guess so but the flavor and aroma is so all over the place imo, that I'm confused. Too sweet for me. Drinkable, but not my kind of beer tbh.

(Draft at Biererei, Berlin, 14 July 2025) Black colour with creamy brown head. Malty, roasted nose with dark chocolate, espresso, soy sauce, bourbon and oak wood. Malty, roasted taste with notes of dark chocolate, sweet espresso, liquorice, soy sauce, bourbon, vanilla, oak wood and a balanced cacao bitterness. Full body, sweet. On the sweet and boozy side, but really rich and tasty, with a generous bourbon touch. Very nice.

Bottle shared by Joen, thanks! Opaque black color, small beige to light brown colored head. Aroma is malts, bourbon. Flavor is malts, heavy bourbon, dark malts, sweet bourbon and oak notes, coffee, soy sauce, soft bitterness. Old school. Absolutely amazing. I love it.

Unfortunately quite thin body, boozy, bitter and roasty. Lots of bourbon, dark chocolate, dry barrel. Still rich and not too rough, very nice.
