On tap at Belmont Station Bier Cafe, pours black with a medium brown head. Nose is rich and decadent, with lots of bourbon barrels, dark sugars, molasses, and a touch of smoke. Flavour is rich and blended well, with lots of bourbon barrels, light smoke, and medium roast. Complex, rich and nicely barrel aged. Excellent.

Nice nose, thinner on the body than I’d expect, but I have been drinking a lot of serious BBA stouts lately. Slightly smoky. Booze comes through as it warms

Ah yes, purchased at Total Wine in Santa Fe a month or so back. Stamp on the bottom of the 16 oz can says canned on 12/19/19. I dig the minimalist label as in it’s really hard to read. Must be part of the plan. Imperial stout, bourbon barrel aged, oversized can, all going the right direction. Pop the tab and pour into my Cowtown snifter to determine a rich black body, glorious mocha head. The smell is roasty burnt malt and chocolate. I take a drink, geez, I should’ve bought more. A reach-around dark chocolate with a healthy bourbon influence, malt, toffee, berry and grain. Pretty impressive.
