Bottle during RBSG 2014 Grand Tasting at Schlafly Tap Room. Black with tan head. Aromas of whiskey, coconut, dark fruit. Tastes of whiskey, light tart notes, chocolate. Full body with a dry finish. Tartness in the taste was slightly strange but not terrible. Apparently there was a better bottle at the share but I was unable to find it.
