Draft at Craft Brewed. Pours a deep brown to black with a finger of beige head that lingers, then dissipates into a small ring. Bourbon-forward nose with vanilla and chocolate cacao nib aromas. Smooth, but thin-bodied and boozy. Lots of barrel character, but it overwhelms the beer. Bourbon bomb.

Draft at Churchkey. Poured a dark cola brown color with a small tan head. Aroma was smooth roasted malts. Chocolate. Vanilla. Flavor was nice light coffee grounds. Earthy notes. Wow.
