Adil’s master craftmanship. Bourbon and sour aroma with some honey, enticing really. Black body with spider lace, after it warms, a thick head before. Fruit, yeast, great wine on top of chocolate malt,cola, sugar, dextrose, candi sugar (loads of it), perhaps honey. Perfect carbonation, smooth mouthfeel, dangerously drinkable.

Two 5 0z samples at Gambrinus Bistro & Cafe. Deep murky brown with a creamy and thin foam. Intense dried fruit nose also has alcohol, candy, perfume, and earthy toffee notes. Very sweet with matching intense bitterness. Toffee and butterscotch lead way to alcoholic vanilla and dried pit fruits. Oily and creamy texture (Was this pulse fermented guys?). Quite drinkable for the weight, but it is still a monster. Very good.
