Picked up a 330ml can from the Co-op on Kensington cold beer room in Calgary on 7-11-25 for $13.49 CAD. Canning date was 3-26-21; best by 3-26-26; consumed 10-24-25.
Beer poured black with a very nice tan head with the original pour.
Nose has notes of vanilla, leather, and faint peat.
Taste is a large lightly roasted malt base that has melded very nicely with the barrels in which the scotch barrel works very well and gives a suggestion of the rough nature of scotch. The bourbon barrels impart a touch of vanilla. Finishes well balanced as the hopping initially must have been pretty substantive.
Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied and very smooth.
Overall, this brew has aged very nicely over 4.5 years, it was worth the splurge!
