Dark brown color, no foam. Wood and whisky aroma. Complex. Slightly sweet flavor with wood and whisky or bourbon taste. Not much coffee for a stout. Smooth sipping beer.

I got this in a trade with joe1510. Thanks Joe!
This pours a very dark brown with reddish highlights and about a 1 finger head of tannish foam. Average head retention but it does have some nice lacing.
The smell is dominated by caramel malt but I also get some roasted malt, vanilla, and wood. Pretty nice nose.
The taste has notes of caramel and roasted malt, toffee, a real oaky flavour, and a bit of dark fruit but mostly caramel and toffee and it's hitting my taste buds nicely. Oh, now I'm noticing a bit of vanilla; it's stronger in the smell than in the taste.
The body is thinner than I expected though it is quite creamy, carbonation is on the low side, and the abv is hidden pretty well.
Because of it's smoothness, I find it quite drinkable.. a very nice American Strong Ale indeed. I'd drink it again.
