Batch 2 bottle (11/2017) shared at Blind Stout Share. Pours a deep brown to black with a small bit of beige head that dissipates instantly. Warming spicy, almost rye-like aromas with tons of cacao nib, dark chocolate and dark grains. Smooth on the palate but very dry. Lots of oak, dark chocolate, grain husk and more light pepper notes. Warming bourbon but not overly boozy. Smooth and nice.

Gladly shared at Luppolo Station in Rome. Thanks PierL. Black ink pour with brownish little foam. Aroma: tons of chocolate, milky with hints of vanilla. Mouth: boost of alcohol, warming really and bit over the top. Solid anyway.
