From Jun 2008
Hand drawn 10oz mug was a pitch black with a 1 finger head of foam that had good head retention.
The smell was of roasted malt and bourbon. Also had some light notes of coffee.
The taste had notes of chocolate followed by an ever increasing taste of bourbon. Light notes of roasted malt and coffee there as well.
Thick body but it was ever so creamy and the alcohol was more noticeable than I would have liked it as it was quite warming after the swallow.
I think the bourbon presence was a little over done here but it was still a pleasurable brew to drink. I'd have it again.
