Tap at Drunk Uncle. Monstrous coffee flavor and aroma, impressively outshines the barrel. Huge, thick flavors. Unsessionable, super sipper. Better body, deeper flavor than all these new school sugar bombs, though certainly similar too. Wurld Klasss.

(Bottle) Black colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with coffee, dark chocolate, toasted wood, bourbon, vanilla, toffee and orange. Malty, roasted, vinous taste with notes of coffee, dark chocolate, vanilla, oak wood, bourbon, toffee, liquorice, nuts and a mild coffee bitterness in a fairly boozy finish. Full body, sweet. Rich, tasty and powerful, with the flavour complexity nicely balancing the alcohol. Great beer!

RB 3.9 = 7.8 tick

Black with a medium light brown head. Aroma of wooden barrels, chocolate, coffee and slightly dried fruit sense. Sweet with a warm wooden barrels and coffee end, like! The Scotsman, Oslo.

Beer #12 (of 19) of my 9000th Beer Celebration [9 beers on both sides of #9000th itself] Deep dark brown coloured body with a light brown head that fades fairly quickly and leaves a thinnish glow on top. Aroma of really robust and rich coffee notes with a ton of bitterness and earthy notes with some nutty characteristics, a good hit of pitted fruits and more molasses, peanut butter and syrup scents than expected - this is super rich in the nose. Full-bodied; Complete and utter richness is dominated by coffee, chocolate, lactose, cream, alcohol, caramelised sugars and especially nuts with a sweet finish that shows some birch syrup and especially deep caramelised sugars overpower the alcohol with a lot of ground coffee and pure milk and slightly dark chocolates noticeable in the mix. Aftertaste shows some sort of semblence of flavours with a ton of rich malts and deep, sweet caramels and toffee, but the nuttiness, earthy, creamy and especially lactosey qualities dominate and stay super pungent throughout, especially in the finish, given the complexity, sweetness, richness and alcohol bite are extreme. Overall, a super pungent, bitter, flavourful and especially deeply alcoholic beer with a lot of coffee, chocolate and malty notes that make this very hard to drink, even a single twelve ounce bottle, but even at four ounces or so, this would be almost cloying, but very strong, pungent and bitter. Still, nice to get down what I could considering the style and richness here, but the alcohol, lactose, cream, molasses and especially coffee/chocolate components limit this greatly. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle, purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Clarendon), Virginia on 26-February-2016 for US$2,29 (wrong price!!!) when I only had two kids, bottled on 25-January-2016, sampled at my house here in Washington for Beer #12 (of 19) of my 9000th beer celebration [9 beers on both sides of #9000th itself] on 18-September-2021 after five+ years of aging.
