Bottle courtesy of hackobock. Black pour with a thin mocha head. Balanced roast and bourbon barrel presence. White chocolate, vanilla and charred wood. Sweet & tiny bitter taste. Velvety round mouth. Huge barrel presence but since the stout is so balanced and in no way cloying it never gets vulgar.

750ml bottle pours an opaque black with a ring of creamy, tan head. Nose has booze, bourbon, molasses, chocolate, malt. Flavor is crazy smooth, malt, chocolate, licorice, caramel, molasses, chewy toffee. Finishes lightly boozy, but quite smooth. Well done.
