Sep 17, 2009 Pours dark and rich with a creamy coco color 1/2" head.1st thought would be flavors of malt, coffee, and dark chacolate. Flavor diminishing quickly leaving a sweet remembrace on the palate. Over all one of the best beers i ever had.

Jun 26, 2009 Not too heavy for a stout and very enjoyable. Has a great nose of coffee and chocolate. Has a flavor of dried fruit, and somewhat of a spicey tone to it. Nice alcohol content of 10%. Gets you to where you need to be.

Jun 14, 2009 Too much of the booze and bourbon came out in this beer. I had it next to the 12th anniversary beer and found it to be much more boozy and out of balance.

Jun 11, 2009 On tap at Brouwer’s Back in Black Stout Fest for SBW. Pours black with a decent tan head. Huge aroma of bourbon, oatmeal, roasty malts, and caramel. Taste is the same, slightly buttery. Very smooth, with warming alcohol and a nice roasty oatmeal/chocolate finish.

May 24, 2009 Shared by Rciesla. Not sure what all the fuss is about this one, as i didn’t think this was anything special. I found the finish on this one to be harsh. Tastes like Stone RIS with a hint of bourbon and vanilla.
