This year's BA Sump is an Imperial stout with Peruvian coffee beans roasted by Sump, aged 24-31 months in Heaven Hill and Wild Turkey bourbon barrels.
This blend has bright aromas of brown sugar, raisin and tobacco smothered in chocolatey fudge and burnt marshmallow. Whiskey and oak character are prominent, and complimented by the roasty, nutty, figgy notes of the Peruvian coffee. It is a smooth, rich blend that reminds us of a three-tiered chocolate fountain, a luxurious bearskin rug, and eating crème brûlée in a candlelit cave.

Bottle shared by MJ. Black with brief, beige head. Roasted aroma with cinnamon, some oak, big coffee. Tastes like someone poured bourbon in my morning coffee. Loads of coffee, some dark chocolate, big bourbon taste without alcohol heat. Nice!

Bottle thanks to Anthony. Pours black with small tan head that lasts. The aroma is strong licorice, roasted malt, dark chocolate, wood, bourbon. Slick body, roasted malt, cocoa, dark fruit, nice barrel and sweetness, enjoyed this.
