Bottle. Black color with beige head. Aroma is bourbony, with vanilla and caramel, chocolate. Taste is chocolate, vanilla, truffes, liquorice, some dark fruits, touch of warming booze. Full-bodied, excellently balanced, fine-bubbled carbonation. After a few sips, the aroma becomes quite boozy. Still excellent!

Draught at BKL München 2017.
Black body, with a medium, dense, creamy, dark beige head.
Aroma of coconut, bourbon, barrel, smooth coffee, melting chocolate, some vanilla, subtle liquorice.
Tastes quite similar, with a bit more liquorice, but also some dark fruits, slight alcohol.
Full, creamy mouthfeel, with a soft carbonation.
Finishes roasty, warm, with whiskey barrel, chocolate, coconut, some coffee, some liquorice.
Tasty! Very smooth, the whisky barrel is perfectly integrated, really greatly balanced. Alcohol provides some warmth, but is well hidden. Great example of a barrel aged Imperial Stout and propably my favourite style example from Germany so far!
