Dec 24, 2008 Bottle that was very kindly given to me by Craig, cheers mate. Consumed 22-12-08. Pours black with a beige head. This beer had a smoky nose in fact I would go further than that and say it was smoked mackerel which I also detected in the mouth. There is also a whiff of whisky on the aroma and this comes through in the mouth but its more subtle than you would expect. The mouthfeel is soft and creamy and there is a slight bitterness that carries, though this is subsumed by the general sweetness that is present in this beer. A7 A4 F7 P4 OV 15 3.7

Apr 1, 2008 Bottle, thanks to Beachbum25. Tried the 12, 16 and 30. The 12 poured a tiny head that was gone quickly. Color is almost jet black. Aromas are coffee, chocolate and toasted malt. Flavores are of whisky(bourbon and scotch), chocolate, coffee, toast. Carbonation is low and hops are barely noticeable except on back thirs of tongue. This one is better than the 16, but not as good as the 30.

May 31, 2008 September 2007 bottle number 03151. Pours with a brown creamy head covering a black body. Pours like motor oil. Some spider lacing. Aroma of vanilla, wood, coffee and whiskey. Strong oak in the taste aswell as porter style dry coffee. Some vanilla in the back aswell. Not nearly as complex as I was expecting. Creamy mouthfeel with light bubbles. Alcohol is well hidden in the taste. A bit too much wood in the taste, felt like I might get splinters from drinking this beer.
