| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 16, 2009 Had a bomber of this last night thanks to a trade with "hannont". Colour was black with a thin, tan head. The nose...WAKE UP and smell the java jive, man, it’s like NOW, baby! On the palate....espresso with a view! Location, location, location!! Madagascar vanilla, slightly boozy,charred oak, roasty. A nice lingering tang on the back palate, reminiscent of Dutch dark chocolate. Mmmm... mmmm! Dickinsonbeer (3497), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 15, 2009 Hmm. I think this is thanks to MaxxDaddy?! Bomber. Pours a great deep dark black opaque with a nice lasting tan head. Aroma is instantly coffee, but slightly stale though- coffee grounds mixed with harsh bittersweet chocolate, slight toasted malts, roasted barley, hints of vanilla and light coconut- charred oak and some medium bourbon notes. Char and chocolate in the flavor some more old coffee hints, roasted barley- more oak and vanilla, - finishes off with a slight charred acrid bitterness and almost a slight tartness and a drying finish.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 14, 2009 Botlle courtesy of fogdog, and shared at the Bockyhorsey tasting. Deep black pour with a creamy beige head. Aroma of roasted coffee and malt, bourbon and some fruit. Flavor is sweet, but doesn’t quite come together. All of the elements are there, just a bit unbalanced. Alcohol and bourbon seem to overpower the other elements by the end of the glass. Good, but not great.
