Bottle. Pours a pitch black hue with a small beige head. A big sweet nose, milk chocolate, roast, bourbon. Sweet, but not too sweet especially considering how stouts are today, big bourbon, hints of smoke, roast, milk chocolate. Lovely. Very smooth.

Bottle shared by Countbeer, thanks! Opaque black color, small to average sized dark brown colored head that diminishes fairly quickly. Aroma is heavy barrel, bourbon, raisins, dark fruits, alcohol. Taste malts, bourbon, dark fruits, wood, lightly chocolate, bourbon sweetness and lightly a soft bitterness. Oily texture, soft carbonation, medium body. Nice!

Bottle thanks to 50belair, shared at tasting. Pours opaque black, small off-white head, dissipates quickly, some lacing. Aroma is chocolate, cherry, bourbon, vanilla. Flavor is full sweet, light bitter, rich rich vanilla cocoa cherry sundae, kind of boozy. Full body, but short of the Huna thick richness.
