5 ⭐ for 5k! What a complex beer, thin start, though the flavours come alive. Maple, apple brandy, whiskey. Fantastic beer! Thanks to everyone who helped along the way, especially Nosferatu Bill! Pic credit: bill l. ... Roo Evil Jewish S. I owe you a beer!

Bottle shared at DACBE share. Thanks for sharing. Pours a pitch black with almost no head with visible coconut flakes floating. Big coconut aromas with cacao nib, roasted malt and light maple notes. Smooth and decadent on the palate, but balanced. Not overly sweet. Good roasted malt character with oak and toasted vanilla from the barrels. Lingering coconut and bourbon on the finish.
