Dec 18, 2007 Sampled at the second annual Bistro’s West Coast Barrel Aged Beer Fest: Clear copper brown with a thin, spotty-lacing tan head. Aroma of sweet toasty caramel and bourbon oak with a hint of dark chocolate. Body starts with a light caramely sweetness and some earthy roasty bitterness toward a piny hoppy finish. Nicely balanced and quite drinkable.

Dec 8, 2002 12/06/02: Had on tap at Pizza Port Strong Ale Festival
This strong, dark black beer has an unmistakable whiskey flavoring (thanks to the cask conditioning). Not for the tame at heart, at 8.2% ABV, this one really warms on the way down. A dark, but thin head tops off this gorgeous beer. Thick and full tasting, this stout does not disappoint.

Nov 25, 2007 Lots of peppery spice and rye leading to notes of anise and marzipan. Mildly buttery palate with good mouthfeel, very prominent rye flavors. seems rather soft for a stout. Very peppery lingering finish.

Jan 3, 2008 Tap @ 2007 Strong Ale Fest. Poured a hazy deep brown color with a large creamy tan head. The aroma had strong citrus and pine with the whiskey not as strong as I would have expected, but that is better. The flavor was the same It seemed to have a fair amount of hops, with a rye spicey finish. Caramel also mixed into the finish. Wasn’t bad but I really didn’t realized it was a stout until now.
