Jul 26, 2008 Pours a thinner near black with fast disapating small bubbled head.
Lots of scotch aroma, some smokey peat, dark fruits, and sweet malt, also alcohol.
Very scotch forward, peaty, some creamy chocolate, lots of roast. huge dark chocolate/barrel finish. Off dry but still kinda sugary in a distracting way.
Medium bodied, fuller mouthful, very subtle fizzy carbonation.

Jul 22, 2008 Smell is smoke, wood, whiskey, and a little beef. Dark brown to black in color almost clear with a thin tan head. Taste is smoke and whiskey. A good body with the alchol getting you at the end of the sip.
