As the name suggests, a massive coffee bomb. Roasty, heavy and a bit sweet coffee, without turning peppery. Base beer is smooth, rich and boozy, and can almost support that amount of coffee. Smooth bourbon helps soften it up. Pretty damn tasty.

750 ml bottle, thanks to Werckmeister! Black, oily liquid, with a small, creamy, coffee-colored head. Aroma of dark chocolate fudge, coffee, bourbon, cocoa, some soy sauce, some dried fruits. Tastes similar, with more tobacco. Full, oily mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation. Finishes dry, roasty, moderate sweet, with bourbon, mod booze, wood, cocoa powder, tobacco. Tasty! Well balanced, with the adjuncts and the barrel in good harmony with the robust, roasty notes. Drinks quite heavy, but not too boozy. Great sipper. 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 17

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a thick and dark brown to black with a finger of beige head that lingers. Huge chocolate brownie and vanilla coffee nose with some roasted coffee bean as it warms. Smooth and creamy, rich and decadent on the palate. Silky smooth texture, but with great body. More creamy vanilla, milk chocolate and barrel notes. Lingering milk chocolate and melted dark chocolate. Heavenly! --- Beer merged from original tick of Bourbon Barrel-Aged Caffè Americano on 28 Jul 2018 at 19:02 - Score: 8
