Jul 25, 2008 Draft at Uber. Black, light golden amber highlights. Thin gray rim. Nice dark tree fruit and smoke on the nose. Creamy, smooth, delectable...lots of flavor but very harmonious. Mild finish. Nice to be able to compare tap and package with such a relatively small release. Great stuff.

Jul 22, 2008 Updated: Aug 4, 2008Draft: I’ve gone like 2 1/2 years without really rating beers...I would rate a beer here and there, but I haven’t had much time to keep up with the craft brewing industry...and now that Im getting back to rating, I’m finding that there’s so many new beers out there to rate, that I’m having as much fun as i did when i first started rating beers...up to a few years ago, it was hard as hell for me to find a beer offered that I hadn’t already had...things have changed. How lovely. This beer here, this was fucking lovely. Lovely Lovely Lovely! at $18 a glass, it probably should be lovely...though I did get it for $14, but the blackboard said $18. It poured deliciously dark with a large fluffy brown head. The nose was a beatiful thick caramelly molassis with tons of matured malt notes and waves of antique must. Flavors were refined to say the least...think smokey peat with such a meaty and chewy mouthfeel. This is a beer you could easily sit and analyze for hours upon hours...waves of chocolate, figs, spice, peat, vanilla, alcohol, whiskey...and on and on and on and on and on.

Jul 21, 2008 PIB 2008. Having this from cask was a treat. Pours very dark brown, almost black, small brown head. Big scotch not, even more then the 12 year. Soft smoked flavors give this a lot of complexity. Chocolate and toffee flavors lead to a dry earthy and peaty finish. Very nice.

Jul 19, 2008 The best and the most expensive of the trio, all tried in a week. Pours black with small bubbly head. Aroma of whisky, a little bourbon. The taste is rich and complete, how would it be after a few more years?A unique ale with a whiskey character. Above average mouthfeel. Feels more "cooked" or complete than the previous two others.

Jul 19, 2008 Dutch tasting session Bunnik. Bottled, at the courtesy of a collegue (Michiel) who brought this from Maryland, USA. Opaque, brown head. Malty nose, peaty, lots of chocolate, fantastic. Smooth flavour, malts and chcolate again. Bitter finish. Mouthfeel not as thick as a thought it would be. Good, but not as exceptional as i thought it would be.
