A prolonged repose in bourbon-soaked American oak barrels adorns a dark chocolate profile with notes of toasted coconut and vanilla. A rich, supple texture belies the unholy power of our Imperial Oatmeal Stout.

Can - pour is mostly black, with a wispy tan lace - nose is whiskey, cocoa, tamarind, oak - flavor is sweet and mildly abrasive/boozy - sugary Cuban coffee, whiskey, oak, vanilla - very warming finish - some vanilla, cream, and brighter fruitiness on the tail end - lingering oak and whiskey - a little astringent, but less so as it warms.

Bourbon chocolate nose, boozy. Smooth, and thick. I’ve got a 2015 bottle at home, looking to put together a vertical one of these days

12 oz can from Half Time, 12/16/24. Pours a dark brown color with a fairly small light brown head. Sweet vanilla, coconut, chocolate, and bourbon. Drinks strong and boozy, but not overly so. This is a big beer, and the 12 oz can is great packaging because that is about the maximum I'd want in one sitting. Really enjoyable and well-made overall. Damn good. 8/4/9/4/18

19.2 ounce can from Tavour. Opaque black pour. Small tan head settles to a scant ring. Sweet roasted malt aroma hints at oak and bourbon. First sip brings notes of warming alcohol, sweet roasted malt, bourbon and oak. Added notes of chocolate, vanilla and roasted marshmallows. Smooth mouthfeel. Long, bittersweet chocolate finish.
