What about the beer?
Colour is dark mahogany brown with a small tan head. Aroma has bourbon oak, vanilla and sweet fruity malts. Taste starts with sweet spiced boozy bite. Vanilla-oak-flavoured caramel
malts with fruity bitterness take over. Towards the end fruity sweet
caramel malts and biting bourbon-boozy bitterness get on top with
raisins and dried fruits. Aftertaste has oaky-malty dryness and lasting gentle burn of bourbon.
As Dirty Bastard is a superb Scotch Ale, this is stunningly
beautiful barrel-aged tuned sequel to that. The bourbon vanilla and oak
are present in different ways on every stage, but sweet toffeed malts and fruity bitterness are surely there too to remind me of the original. Strong and delicious, that's a fact.

The forest. The home of felt-hatted grey-bearded hermits. Also the dark source of stories of mystery, horror and supernatural. The nature can sometimes be cruel, but these stories bubble out from individual's personal imagination or from culturally shared collective legends. Or do they?
