4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Pour opaque dark brown, with a small creamy nut-brown head.
Aroma has plenty of roasted malts, milk chocolate, coffee, slight wood, vanilla and whiskey. Slight smoke, burnt sugars and oatmeal (?) in here as well.
Taste is rather sweet, with a nice dose of roasted bitterness to it.
Rather fat and oily bodied, with a flat carbonation. slight heat in the throat, but anything else, would be strange when holding more than 13 % abv. Well done.
