Common descriptors are
Bottle conditioned ONLY.
Note: This is the Russian Imperial Porter available in Teignworthy labelled bottles & is aged in whisky barrel. It is not the same beer as the Edwin Tucker version, which is lower abv and not whisky-aged. However, the Edwin Rucker version has been seen on cask badged as Teignworthy Russian Imperial Porter, particularly at beer festivals and the like, where there is no proper pump clip.

A Russian Imperial Porter which has been matured in Islay Whisky oak barrels from the Bruichladdich Scottish Distillery, giving it super strength, with a lovely high peat after taste.
