Poured from 473mL can (Oct 14, 2025). Dark brown with minimal beige head. Mild milk chocolate with an okay bourbon underlay, fairly thin. The barrel treatment is okay, but the base beer is lacking.

473 ml can. Pours a dark brown with short tan head that settles quickly. Aromas of alcohol and some roasted malts with maybe a bit of chocolate. Flavors of cherrywood, dark chocolate, booze and roasted malts. Not getting any bourbon barrel with the exception of alcohol. Disappointing for a barrel aged stout.

Medium brown, thin head. Looks like a 6% porter tbh. It’s boozy af, that’s the dominant character, with kind of a cocoa powder note. Definitely dry for the style, lacks the sugars I like. It really does come across like that 6% porter with a bunch of random extra booze in it. Unbalanced.

On tap at Rewind, pours a red-tinged dark brown with a small beige head—looks pretty thin. Aroma is pretty restrained, with gentle cocoa and toasted malt—not getting the barrels. Flavour is much the same, with toasted malt, soft bourbon, and some cocoa. There’s a nice lingering woodiness from the barrels. The body is pretty thin, and the beer lacks complexity; but the construction is actually okay and the barrels elevate this reasonably well.

On tap at St. Augustine's. Pours opaque dark brown with a beige head. Bourbon, some dark cherries, and brown sugar on the nose. Flavour has lots of dark cherries, some boozier, fruitier bourbon notes, dark chocolate, some roast. The roast in the base is quite dry, which is great, but there it's a bit too sugary/boozy. Still quite good.
