Sep 30, 2009 GABF 2009, day 1: Big whiskey nose. Darkly roasted. Wafty espresso. And a rather large alcohol bite. Nice level of hop bitterness, but the sweetness won in the end. Hints of coconut and vanilla could be found in the background.

Sep 26, 2009 Draft at 2009GABF. Pours a thin short lived head over a dark, brown/black (SR 38) clear body.....nose is loaded with, coffee, chocolate, coconut....taste is similar, with loads of coffee, chocolate, coconut, finishing with a medium hop bitterness....mouth feel is thick and rich, carbonation adds to the creaminess. An excellent example of what can be done with balanced big forces.
