22oz @ Matt's new place. Appearance: very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma: oxidized, brown sugars, some burnt barrel. Taste: lots of American oak, moderately sweet, a bit of booze, supple (new word in use!), some cherries. Overall: good one.

Almost black. Not much head. The aroma has a lot of bourbon and chocolate, a bit boozy and a nice barrel character. Medium body for style, but it's quite supple. Fairly nutty, kind of a burnt cherry, again decent chocolate. Rounded bourbon character. Balanced, complex, and that little bit of fruit is a nice touch.

22 oz. bottle, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of chocolate-covered cherries, some light oxidation, a touch of vanillin, molasses, and a touch of bourbon. Flavour is better -- no oxidation present -- with rich bourbon, subtle tart cherries, and a touch of cocoa. The bourbon has diminished a bit, but so have the cherries. It's not a top-tier BBA stout blend, but it's very nice.

Tap. Black color with beige head. Aroma is mild roast, good bourbon barrel, chocolate, a bit vanilla maybe, well-balanced. Taste is chocolate, cocoa, mild roast, sweet but not too sweet, good earthiness too. Velvety mouthfeel with fine-bubbled carbonation. Great stuff!
