jet black pour, but not as thick as i was expecting, but still quite nice. Not much carbonation, and little to no head. Aroma is loaded with bourbon, and it adds such a wicked vanilla to the aroma. Lots of chocolate, espresso, molasses, raisins, and dark fruit. Flavour is very very smooth, and a tad boozey. Again, loads of bourbon vanilla notes along with more of the same from the aroma. Just an amazing sipper of a beer, i loved it.

Bottle at home. 2014 vintage. Aroma is lots of vanilla, chocolate, lots of Bourbon, malt, oak, dried dark fruits, raisins, liquorice, caramel. Flavour is sweet, body is full, a bit creamy texture. Massive Bourbon and vanilla, heavy but for its ABV this is fairly easily drinkable. Smooth and creamy, rich and complex. Delicious.

2008 vintage bottle, finally opened. This one was old when we bought it 10 years ago. Cheers, T. Can't believe how well this has held up over the years. Very dark brown pour, quick fading head. Nice nose with lots of bourbon barrel, caramel, graham cracker. Smooth taste, dense toasty malts, soft vanilla. Such smooth, and wonderful flavor to this. Bonus points for holding such greatness for 16 years. Incredible beer. See you guys in May!

Strong oaky bourbon, prune, chocolate malt, and hay aroma. Very dark brown with small brown head. Mildly sweet bourbon, chocolate malt, and mildly bitter hay and alcohol flavor. Body much lighter than expected. Light malt flavor. Good but not great - don't know if I let this one age too long.
