Purchased Sept 2020 so it’s another long term cellar dweller. (3 years, 4 months) Incredible depth of malty, toffee flavours and the whisky barrel aged flavours are still present.

First hot was boozy chocolate covered cherries, this then moved towards toffee apples. There's red wine, and a bit of vanilla in the palate for me too. Quite sweet, but very pleasant indeed.

There's a pervasive sourness, which is not what I want in an imperial stout...

Doubt it was meant to taste like this, I do like it though, tart cherry and chocolate. Bit high on carbonated and sour.

Roast chocolate & tart cherry, surprisingly light bodied & disappointing. Enjoyable enough but hardly any barrel and another that may be past it's best.

Sour and vineous, when I wasnt expecting it to be. Not getting any of the whiskey barrel. And it's thin. I fear there's some wild yeast doing some unwanted things with it. It's not getting any better as it goes down. Santa may prefer it 🎅🤷

Been saving this for 3(???) years now. Worth the wait and perfect for this time of year.

Can't work this one out. Compared to other reviews, not much chocolate or even Speyside. Instead, after a fizzy pour, umami nose, then gentle vinous tart sourness and hints of tonka. Not awful, but not the advertised beer. As such, disappointing.

Deep and dark. Lovely rich chocolatey aroma. Very sharp and sour.

Absolute belter. Boozy and so much chocolate.

This is doing very little. Dry and a touch peaty. There’s obviously an audience for it just not me.
