UPDATED: JUL 10, 2016 Finally I got the bottle from my friend... Pours black opaque colour with brown creamy head. Carbonation is not noticable visually. Aroma have strong note of an alcohol, prevails fantastic notes of islay whiskey, cigar, tabacco, cacao and coffee. flavor have similary strong notice of an alcohol, but prevails strong notes of wood (oak), cacao, tabacco, candy sugar and coffee. Malt sweetness is surprisingly medium, hop bitterness also, finish is dry, with interesting note of whiskey, oak and coffee. Body is mouth-coating.

The foaming limited nougat colored foam. The aroma is smoky with notes of whiskey and burnt caramel. The taste is pretty smoky and reveals after some time a caramel flavor that is very dark and almost burned. Whiskey taste is located at the rear of the spectrum. Dark bitter chocolate and some light roasted coffee also get a seat on the tongue, but it it is the smoky character that retains lead all the way to the target. It is an unusual delicious Imperial Stout.

Small bubbly shortlasting head. Aroma is dry and burnt, peat, leather, burnt caramel, grass, minerals, paper, dark malts, alcohol, hay, ashtray. Taste is dry and burnt, ashtray, burnt grain, peat, leather, minerals, weeds, grass, paper, alcohol, hay. Medium bitterness, dry burnt mouthfeel. Not my cup of tea...

(bottle - 330 ml - 2008 vintage) Pitch black pour with no head. Heavy smoke and peat aroma with some roasted coffee and dark fruits. Flavor is big and smoky at the start with a roasty middle and a peaty and roasty finish.

The fuck did I just drink? Peat, a terrible fire that ruined many lives. People going back to the remnants of the fire and being further traumatized.

Poursa deep black color, topped with a beige colored head. Quite roasty aroma, some smoked notes and some alcohol as well. Starts sweet and roasty, followed by a fairly strong bitterness and some alcohol notes. Not bad, but very strong - take it slowly.
