Dec 5, 2008 FoBAB 2008. Pitch black body with a nice creamy tan head. Viscous. The aroma is nutty with tons of sweet barley and lots of English hops. Almost like oatmeal. Subtle bourbon. Rich charred oak with a nice creamy chocolate. A nice blend of English Barleywine and Stout. Clean full palate with a long lasting non-sticky finish.

Jan 2, 2009 FOBAB 08’. Poured black with a tan head. Aroma was caramel, choolate and some nutty notes. Taste was more chocolate and caramel, with a nice balancing bitterness on the end. I like the "pissed off candy bar" description. Describes it to the tee.

Jan 3, 2009 FoBAB 2008. Poured an opaque black color. The head was light brown. Smelled of bourbon, vanilla, dark fruits, and chocolate cake. Full bodied and slightly sweet. Big malt bill with toffee and light roasty bitterness that peaked through the sugars. Vanilla and bourbon flavors imparted by the barrel were also present. Good beer.

Nov 27, 2008 FoBAB 08. It said a blend of Barleywine and Imperial Stout (not IPA). Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. Interesting combination. Had sweet flavor of malt, chocolate, blending well with the bourbon. Interesting.
