Draft at the source. This might need to be a different entry, since it’s billed as the bourbon barrel chocolate porter, and the regular chocolate porter is a separate entry from the porter. Anyway, until that burning controversy is settled, this beer is very dark maroon in color, thick brown head that settles to an edge. Aroma of whiskey that overwhelms all else. The taste is also completely dominated by the booze. Oh well.
