Bottle from 77ships. Many thanks! @ RBBWG 2015. Dark brown colour, brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, vanilla, bourbon and a sour touch. Sweet, bit thin, bitter finish. Ok.

Bottle sampled @ RBBWG IV. Personal contribution. Obtained in a trade with AdamJackson. Dark brown, blackish, little mocha head; Nose is bourbon, thick, vanilla, lots, candy sugar, unfortunately a bit sour. Taste is light odd bitter herbal taste leading into bourbon, vanilla, cold coffee, sweet finish is slightly tart sadly, light red berries sour. Body could be thicker. Seems off sadly, still tastes pretty nicely.

Bottle #22, not sure which vintage, 6/16/14. Pours a dark brown color with a thin creamy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malts, mild vanilla and whiskey. The taste is roasted malts, vanilla, chocolate, dark fruits, whiskey. Medium bodied, lingering tartness.

Bomber received as extra in trade. Thank you rfraga7! Pours murky blackish brown with a frothy and slightly fizzy dark mocha head that quickly dissipates without leaving much trace on the glass. Smell is sweet, malty and slightly boozy with roasted malts, vanilla fudge, charred wood, toffee, sweet liquorice candy, shredded coconut, molasses, soil, sweet dark bread and hints of chocolate, coffee and raisins. Taste is sweet, tiny bitter, malty with heavily roasted malts, brown sugar sweetened dark roast coffee, vanilla fudge, charred wood, sweet dark bread, oatmeal cookies, mineral water, bitter chocolate, roasted coconut, orange zest and hay. Mouthfeel is spritzy, round, tiny roasted astringent, tiny boozy and near full bodied. Finish is tiny sweet, bitter and malty with roasted malts, charred wood, vanilla fudge, dark roast coffee, bitter chocolate, minerals, soil, orange zest and burnt toast. Very high and aggressive carbonation which both adds to and ruins the beer. Interesting and quite tasty.
