This was a present from my clever gf, bottle 181/200 one of the last.
The appearance was a very dark brown almost black with off-white creamy head.
This really smelt and tasted like no other beer I had had before.
The aromas of peaty (i.e. smokey) whiskey were omnipresent and dominate the palate.
At the same time the brew is not as alcoholic as a whiskey and much more drinkable.
The mouthfeel is best described as full, round and creamy.
The taste did however get a bit overpowering after the first half or so of a 330 ml bottle which slightly deducts from the drinkability.
