Bottle shared late-nite at RBWG 2014 - Asheville. Cheers! Pours clearish brown-black with a tan cream head. The nose holds toasted oats, coconut, cocoa. Medium to heavy sweet flavour, with more chocolate notes, some honey, dark fruits, light caramel. Full bodied with fine carbonation. Warming finish, somewhat sticky-sweet, lots of dark malts, ripe dark fruits, cocoa. Not bad.

Bottle @ RBWG Fart Share. Pours a thick black appearance with a tiny head. A bunch of coconut, vanilla, and chocolate in the nose. Some whiskey offered. Kind of twangy, tart fruity, boozy rich chocolate flavor. A lot going on but I’m not sure I’m a huge fan.
