Best before end 2028 ("or many more"). Poured from a 250mL capped bottle into a small Duralex tumbler. Served a bit under 55F.
Opaque bistre body with copper highlights, no head, nearly still. No lacing.
Rich, dark malt aroma with hints of cocoa, tobacco, and maybe oak.
Brutal, intensely concentrated waves of malt unfurl on the palate, lashing your taste buds with char, demi-glace, Russian caravan black tea (prior to adding water from a samovar), baker's chocolate, and tobacco leaves. Moderate bitterness from astringency more than hops. Perhaps some peppercorn/caraway? Powerful, withering, fairly dry, dusty finish dies away like a repressed nightmare. Whispers of barrel/funk/phenolics are quickly subsumed by the malt.
Hot, spirited, oily, medium-heavy, nearly still body.
The most befuddling ale style-wise - closer to adambier, eisbock, or strong ale than saison. Rated more for enjoy-ability.
