Mar 12, 2009 Draft at Capone’s. Pours onyx with 1-finger brown head and fairly clingy lacing. Nose is malty, with cacao, molasses, oaky spirits, vanilla, earthy peaty notes, prunes, blackberry, and port wine. Tastes rich, oaky but balanced by peaty malty notes, bourbon, vanilla, cacao, and some lactic creamy finsihing hints. Very smooth, very rich, and very complex, this one is great, and I really want more of this.

Mar 10, 2009 On tap at Capones. Poured a dark black color with a small sized off white head. Aromas of wood, oaky, some roastiness, vanilla, and chocolate. Tastes of whiskey (a lot stronger than the aromas), vanilla, dark fruits, woody, and lightly earthy. Sweeter. More wood in the aromas vs. whiskey in the tastes. Medium alcohol bite in the finish.

Mar 8, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra on tap at the brewery in Longmont. Damn. Ten FIDY and whiskey? Knocked me out. Absolutely exhausting to drink. So much flavor. Thick, creamy, plenty of whiskey flavor. The whiskey covers up some of the flavor, but also adds plenty of its own. A slow-sipper to be sure. Fuckin fantastic brew.

Feb 25, 2009 (Sample Date: 1/26/2009 Source:Capital Ale House - Downtown) Roast, chocolate, and vanilla aroma. Very dark with minimal head. Roasty flavor with dark fruit notes. Moderate bitterness. Whiskey and wood are hard to detect. Vanilla and chocolate come through along with some wood under all that roast. Finish is dry and slightly sour-tannin like possibly from the oak? Tasty!
