The deep, dark abyss is hardly bothered by the disruption caused by the pour, with almost zero discernible carbonation that bubbles up. Beautiful legs lazily chase the receding liquid as it's swirled in the glass.
The nose opens up with smoky raisin juice and toasted marshmallows. After some time to warm, the sweetness intensifies, introduced appropriately with rich, enticing notes of grape jam and burnt honey. Trailing are whispers of peppery spice.
The palate does a fantastic job of playing off of the complexity found on the nose while also bringing something entirely new to the table. Sweet & smoky intermingle on the front-end of the palate - campfire ashes and caramel-dipped grapes. On the finish is a touch of drying oak and rye malt.
The mouthfeel on this is excellent. The carbonation is very low, but there's just enough there to adequately cut the slightly syrupy, heavy weight that this 15% beast carries with it. It's alarmingly smooth, but still noticeable warmth on the finish to accompany fantastic length to the profile.
