Apr 19, 2008 Pours very dark brown to black with a thin head. This beer smells much like a stout with roasted malt and some chocolate notes. There’s also a hint of vanilla. The flavor is dark roasted caramel malts with coffee and chocolate in there. Full bodied and creamy with enough hops so satisfy.

Apr 17, 2008 Updated: Feb 6, 2009Liter bottle from Three Sons after tasting held there. A really nice beer. deep port color with odors of fisch and plums and a little smoke. And yes Bourbon also. Fair carbonation and an avelanche of flavors, from pums and chocolatre and wine and sweet malt lingering long after.
On draft at Magoos, really full moth with lots of chocolate and cgherrries

Apr 14, 2008 Pours dark brown, almost black. Adequate head. Smells like a milk stout to me. Malt, cream, a touck of chocolate. Hints of bourbon, with good malt flavor. Vanilla, coffee, and maybe a caramel note or two. Pretty good for the price, and very drinkable for the ABV.

Apr 9, 2008 Pours a shade of black walnut with ruby tinged edges. Very lifeless. No head. I turned the bottle completely upside down to see if I could get a rise out of this one. Zero. Roasty chocolate nose, coffee, caramel, vanilla, burnt wood, and whiffs of butterscotch candy. Flavor is cold coffee, unsweetened cocoa powder, burnt caramel, some ash and alcohol vapor. The oak barreling smoothed out the brew as it has a fairly buttery soft feel and good density, obviously more apparent on the finish as a woody character jumps to the forefront. I was expecting more however, maybe it’s the name. Could be better.
