Thanks to Ezra for sharing this bottle at his Scotch tasting. Poured a deep brown mildly chestnut hue with a thin taupe head. Satisfyingly smoky and rich. Malt driven and wonderfully flavorsome.

Bottle at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Pours out in a deep hazy burgundy brown colour with a small crwamy beige foam. A bit dryish peaty and foresty aroma with notes of fudge, caramel, butter and nuts. Medium to full-bodied with notes of burnt caramel, peat, crackers, figs, minerals and mild cocoa. Balnced malty and warming finish, if a bit clean. Notes of caramel and mild peat with hints of resin and nuts. Quite powerful but lacking depth.

Well done, considering how well the ABV is masked. I’m not sure that I would make a habit of this, however... it’s good, but just not what I want from a beer at this point in time. Would it be fair to describe this as a malty session beer with extra alcohol? I wasn’t careful when I poured it, so there may have been some trub on the bottom of the bottle that got stirred up a little, as it is hazy in my glass. No head to speak of, and the carbonation seems to be less than most store beer I can recall. Not a bad beer, but I am in a phase where I like more hop flavor.

Pours a a dark red hazy. Smells of toffey and syryp sweetness. Starts off with a hint of clover honey and turns into a roasted caramel. i never had this style so i have nothing to compare it too. Lingering alcohol flavor sort off fake and altered by chemical. Not a big fan. I think aging this one on some oak will do it wonders. now i want to go and try more to compare.

2009-12-05. Dark red brown body, near headless, beige ring. 3+ Flavour is fairly sweet, malt, touch of caramel. Aroma is rich sweet caramel malt. 6+ Palate is smooth, average to medium palate, under carbonated. Okay. Has its moments but lacks overall impact. Pleasant. Cask at Coles, Buffalo
