Bottled 01/11/2019. I’ve sat on this for several years. Malty, boozy, lots of raisin flavor. I don’t get a lot of brown sugar flavor but maybe it’s faded over time. Pretty smooth so this could get dangerous

Big chewy raisin. ABV is hidden masterfully. An excellent cellar beer. Bottling up a bunch of barrel-aged homebrew stouts

Excellent. Correct amount of candy in the grain bill. Belly warming booziness

2018 bottling. I'm not generally a fan of high-ABV beer, but this is great. I wouldn't have guessed it's 13%. Deep and complex with a flavor I really enjoy. I don't even like raisins!

Was expecting it to be a little sweeter, because of the brown sugar. It was a bit dry on the finsh

There's a strong raisin sweetness at the end but in between the light malt beginning and that finish there's this OBSCENE earthy flavor that doesn't sit well for me. Not for me I guess.

Beautiful. Very strong. Don’t drink a lot of these, but I aged this one for a year as a celebratory beer. Can’t say what the original is like but this was great.

Dark fruit and alcohol on nose, slight fusel notes. Medium body. Follows nose, could stand a bit more malt sweetness and body to bring things into balance… but also to be expected sitting at 16.5% abv
