Pours pitch black with a smooth head. Aroma of bourbon, wood, oak, roasted malts and earthy notes. Taste is silky smooth, sweetish oaky and woody with some bourbon and roastiness. Finish is smooth, silky and sweetish with some oakiness and bourbony notes. Pretty smooth stout.

Bottle from Siren, Friday 21st February 2014 directly from brewery door, consumed at home Thursday 27th February 2014 Pours black with a small tan head, there is a little bit of coca cola in the mouth. Interestingly this is not as meaty as the Buffalo Trace version. There is more whisky on nose with this one, perhaps more than I expected. A little chewy, very warm in mouth, this is becoming very chocolatey and smooth, bettrr than the Buffalo Trace. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov16 3.9

Draft. A black beer with no head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, wood, and alcohol. The flavor is sweet with notes of alcohol, roasted malt, and rye, leading to a dry finish.
