A deep red beer with a beutiful chocolate-brown head. The aroma is sweet primarily malty with some roasted and woody notes. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of over ripe fruit, but also some wood and chocolate.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a dark mahogany with a warm, reddish hue and a small, beige head. Vinous, raisiny aroma with distinct oak. Medium body with accents of dried fruits, raisins and a LOT of oak. Dry and extremely delicate. 150306

Bottled, thanks cquiroga! Black, small head. Oak and vanilla up front. The malt character is rounded, chocolatey and roasty. Loads of licorice in the finish. The cask character doesn’t go over board, and accompanies the other flavours well.

Bottled (Thanks heemer77). Rubyish brown colour, small off-white head. Aroma is roasted malts, vanilla, chocolate, ryebread and a bit barrel hints. Flavour is vanilla, alcohol, spices, some bourbony hints. Still a bit empty in my opinion. Hides the 9.5% well.

Dark brown color; thin head. The aroma, quite strong, has mature sweet vanilla and old wood, tobacco. The flavor is dominated by this bourbon vanilla cask, even if ends with more roasted malt and bitterness (and a hint of coffee); alcohol perception, burning. Good but too much monodimensional.
