Pours clear mahogany with a two finger, tan head. Aroma is molasses, smoke and light spice. Taste is brown sugar and butter, moving to smoke, roast and wood. Finish is peaty. A very interesting strong ale.

UPDATED: AUG 26, 2017 Roast, piles of malt, smoke and whiskey. Thin mouthfeel and little to no carbonation.

330ml bottle. Pours red brown with zero head (and I try). Raisins, dried figs, brandy, hazelnuts, oak, a little touch of smoke at the end, cherry, rum, muscovado sugar (or maybe that jaggery?). Big full body. It’s like a big boozy Christmas pudding. One of those beers that I respect a lot more than I enjoy drinking. Clearly very well put together, just not completely my thing.

330ml Bottle. Pours a dark brown similar to ginger beer. Huge aroma of caramel, toffee, and sugar. Medium body with a full rich flavour palate. Only a slight hint of alcohol hidden away.

330 ml bottle. A thick and very complex beer. The nose is the only thing that lets it down. Smells a lot like a barley wine. Thick sweet caramel flavors. Continues into a very sweet vanilla taste. The rest is a woody smokiness to finish with a great strong almost sulatan sweet finish. A complex and strong ale that challenges what beer can be.

Bottle, Brewdog Leicester. Dark brown with a thin off white head. Nutty dark toffee. Dusty, gritty cocoa. Spicy. Vanilla. Umani meatiness. Marzipan alcohol. Raisins with nutty, woody notes. Very good.

330ml bottle Aroma is Christmas cake with caramel, spice and hint of oak. Poured hazy brown with slight head. The taste is all about the alcohol. The initial bitterness is followed by the smooth alcoholic finish and cloying sweetness with a hint of smoky oak barrel. Reminded me of drinking port - one to enjoy after dinner with the cheese board.

330ml bottle. Pours a hazy red-orange with a thin, off-white head that leaves spotty lacing. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, dark fruit, brown sugar, spice and oak. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, caramel, dark fruit, brown sugar, spice, oak, booze and a hint of smoke with a dry, bitter, hop resin finish. Medium to full body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Very nice, has some complexity to it.

330ml bottle bought at Value On, tasted at Jamey’s. Aroma is jaggery, caramel, oak, vanilla, candied fruits, some saddle notes. Taste is toffee, hoppy bitter, vanilla, caramel, smokey notes. Barrels, toffee, hoppy, roasted malt, slightly buttery aftertatse. Perfect!
