Commercial Description:
A bit of backwoods pleasure without the banjo. This strong stout is brewed with a hint of coffee and vanilla then aged in oak bourbon barrels. Our process ensures that strong bourbon undertones come through in the finish in every batch we brew. We recommend decanting at room temperature and best enjoyed in a brandy snifter.

Bottle at the Düsseldorf Gathering. Deep, black body. Pours like sirupe. Caramel coloured, creamy head. Very intense aroma of pure chocolate, liquor and cofee. Moderately bitter, moderately sweet flavour. The flavour is not as complex as the aroma, but a very nice stout. I wish they’d serve this in my hotel in stead of coffee at breakfast.

Bottle many thanks to footbalm. Pours a thick black with creamy tan head. Interesting aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted malt, sweet caramel, and a hint of vanilla and bourbon. Flavors of bitter dark chocolate, strong roasted coffee, bourbon, a little oak, and cream. Mouthfeel is thick and creamy. Excellent.

12oz bottle from a trade. Pour was dark brown with small tan head. Nose was right up front was buroun, then coffeee, caramel trace vanilla, chocolate. This was great. Lots in the mouth, same as nose with a bit of peper, and lots of alcohol through out. Got better as it warmed. Great brew. Thanks!

Traded bottle. Good but did not live up to the hype for me. Definitely got the coffee, vanilla and bourbon notes in the aroma and flavour but there was a really strong burnt flavour at the finish. Just nothing really exciting to me.

Bottle... Poured black with a brown head. Aroma of mocha, roasted coffee, and malt. Bourbon flavors upfront with also some oatmeal, black coffee that stayed through to the finish. It was a like an Irish Car Bomb that you could sip instead of chug. Had a quick punch of alcohol in the finish that was quickly balanced by the malt and coffee flavors.
