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!

Been sitting just this bottle for a while and finally decided it was time to break it out! It’s really good too! Has some nice fruit notes and a definite alcohol bite! I really like it!

Bottled Jan 2019, purchased Mar 2023. Nose is malt, prune and leather. Slight booze burn on the nose. Sips sweet and boozy. Dark fruit with prunes and raisins. Total malt bomb. Boozy and very well balanced. Reminds of a super strong Scottish ale.
