22oz bomber. Opaque black body. Quite mellow for the style. Smooth brown malt. Full bodied, but not much depth. No hop depth. OK. Bland. Minimal, mild, oily tones.

650 ml thanks to T.J on the share! The aroma maple syrup, weak roast, weak oak. The flavor is decent roasted backbone, chocolate, burnt coffee bean. The texture and mouthfeel is pretty thin. Carbonation on the lower side Maybe creamy/ kind of average mouthfeel. Ok, where is the bourbon? Really, I don’t taste it. Overall, slightly above average at best and just a standard stout.

Poured from bottle dark brown with amber hues and a thin mocha head. Aromas of mild chocolate malt oak and coffee. Taste is slightly thin hardly any barrel and is more like a robust porter. Meh.

Treated as an imperial stout, this was poured into a snifter.
The appearance was a dark brown close to black color. Thin rimmed to concave slight filmy off white foamy head quickly dies off. Filmy lace.
The aroma leads with a sweet meaty flow over some robust coffee and roasted cocoa bean. Woody edge but not necessarily the bourbon, that part seems to be missing a bit.
The flavor yields to the sweet meatiness. Crisp yeastiness warms a sly dark deep chocolate breadiness. Quick bready/biscuity flow into the aftertaste and on into the finish (somewhat sticky sweet).
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Moderate carbonation. Rough yet still semi-smooth sort of feel on my tongue. I like it as an Imperial Stout.
Overall, I see this as an imperial stout with a different twist, possibly a Uinta sort of nice twist. I dig it as is.

Charred oak, barley nose. Mahogany, medium tan head, good lace. Charred oak, almost exclusively save for some subtle raisin accents. Medium body, soft carbonation. No bourbon at all detected. Strangely similar to their Baba Black Lager.

Bottle from Brewers Haven. Beautiful pour, inky black, rocky beige head, sheets of lacing. Aroma is straight up stout, roast grains and dark, bitter chocolate. Taste turns a bit sweet, no burn, not much evidence of any barrel aging. A bit timid after an exceptional pour.

Bottle sample at Dominion Wine & Beer. Black with barely thin tan head. Aromas of roast, dark chocolate, coffee, light oak. Tastes of roast, coffee, dark chocolate. Medium body with a dry finish. Tasty enough but could use more bourbon.

Pour is a complete black with a small tan head. Aroma is a bit of char malt with some of the bourbon barrel showing up. It’s not a huge barrel aroma. Flavor is again a chared malt to start then a minor bourbon barrel. The malt is fine in this beer but this could have spent more time in the barrel.
