Can from Beerdome. Very caramelly aroma with hazelnuts, roasted malt, fudge, sugary notes, soft marshmallow, vanilla, lightly bourbon. Not picking up that much coconut. Sweet, mild bitter. Not as great as regular Hazel's Nuts, but still very good.

Canned 9/15/2020, drunk 12/26/24.
Large tan head, moderate retention. Dark, clear.
Nose has a good mix of sweet and dark notes without too much dark fruit and low roast. Not boozey with only light bourbon character. It definitely has the mellowness of a BA beer, but there's certainly no distinct bourbon character. The adjuncts are moderate, very homogeneous. At this point, anyways (beer is over four years old).
Sweet, rich, with that same rather homogeneous adjunct character that isn't overdone, at least four years of age in. Full-bodied, short of syrupy. Quite sweet, with a strong bitter adjunct character on the end and some Barrel-Aged character that is, again, very indistinct. But clean, pretty polished, not boozey and very flavorful. And value-wise it's insane. $6!

In general not usually a fan of hazelnut, but works great here. Thick, creamy, sweet, smooth. Hazelnuts, milk chocolate, coconut, some roast in the backend. Very nice.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a deep brown to light black with a finger of beige head that lingers. Lots of hazelnut in the nose with bourbon and coffee notes. As it warms the marshmallow really comes out. Creamy and nutty flavors with the oak and bourbon well integrated. Don't get much coconut unfortunately. Lingering bourbon and nuts on the finish.
