Apr 25, 2009 Bottle... Poured black with a brown head. Roasted aroma of bourbon notes. Thick, creamy palate with very sweet, roasted grain notes but not cloying. Chocolaty sweet flavors and strong whiskey notes.

Apr 21, 2009 Poured black with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, bourbon, oak, vanilla. Taste is similar to the aroma, with some caramel also coming through. This may be a little on the "hot" side, though certainly not bad. Mouth is really nice and smooth. Overall, another big barrel-aged stout. Very enjoyable.

Apr 17, 2009 [1964-20090124] Bottle. Roasted fig malt and mild coffee aroma. Black body with a medium-lasting foamy brown head. More roasty malt flavour with lots of fruit and a long coffee grains finish. Full body is boozy. Nice, lovely roast, weird aftertaste.

Apr 13, 2009 Way underestimated this one when I bought it....a pleasant surprise. Dark brown/black pour...thin brown head. Boozy, choco-malt aroma....smells tasty. Smooth and creamy body, but a tad thin..not bad, but I wanted a bit more fullness. Rich choco flavor...bourbon, vanilla, oaky...all the expected players. Good stuff!
