Handwritten notes: powerful, distinctive flavour. Once you've had one, you'll never get that taste out of your mind... old oak taste with great malty undertones... a kind of old, but fresh taste. Does that make sense? If you've had this beer, it does. **In hindsight I've had 5 of these now and I had no idea it was 6.6% alcohol.**
