Draft Extreme Beer Fest 2016. Pitch black color with an oily sheen on top of the liquid. Aroma shows big bourbon, Don’t smell almonds.
The body is full with a oily slick texture, how a impy stout should be. Great roasty character with some lasting bourbon after the sip. No alcohol noticeable. The flavor and mouthfeel are wonderful. But it doesn’t really display nuts/ almonds. This was sampled early on so it wasn’t my palate either. Still real tasty.

Sample at the brewpub during the bottle sale weekend on 05/09/2015. Brownish-black color with a medium tan head that diminishes gradually to a film. Patchy lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of roast malt, bourbon and almonds. Full-bodied with flavors of oaky bourbon, dark chocolate, almond and malt. The finish is bourbon and chocolate-covered almonds. Solid beer all around.

One of a large number of samples I had at the Extreme Beer Fest in Boston 3/21/32014. Alcohol heat high light almond note.
Sample at EBF 2016 Chocolate with huge nutty aroma and flavor Light bourbon and vanilla sweetness, like desert in a glass. This sample had hazelnut, almond, pecan, cashew, and coconuts in it which really should warrant it own listing.
