Sep 10, 2009 11.2oz bottled Sept 2007. Clear deep brown pour--black in the glass--with a one finger tan head, pretty good retention. Smoky, lightly salty whisky up front with some oak behind. There is also a pretty good deal of chocolate and molasses, light roast, plums and vanilla. Flavor follows suit pretty smoothly until the finish, when it gets a little burnt. Bitterness peaked @ a 2-3, and only light alcohol was noted. The whisky never overpowered, which was nice. Medium-full smooth creamy body with light carbonation. Good beer.

Sep 1, 2009 Bottle bonused by Cletus. Thanks, John. Pours black. Thick, but not as much as described on the bottle. Small tan head. Looks thin but attractive. Smells even more so. Lots of Scotch whisky on the nose: peat, earth, a hint of smoke. Also, some wood, vanilla, and mild chocolate. Taste adds a bit of saltiness to the overall picture. I’ve been in a Scotch mood, so maybe I’m biased at the moment, but this tastes damn fine.

Aug 30, 2009 Bottle dated Sept 2007. Black pour with a creamy milk chocolate brown head. Whiskey dominates the aroma, but there are also notes of vanilla and faint chocolate. Whiskey flavor is not as overwhelming as I expected. I also taste oak, with a bit of vanilla, chocolate, malt, smoke, and a slightly bitter finish. Overall nicely balanced. Mouth feel is medium with a slightly oily edge. Not bad overall, but I like the GI BCS a bit more though.
