Smog City - Infinite Wishes Bourbon BA.

Bottle (2018) @ home. Opaque black color, small to average sized brown head. Aroma is malts, roasted malts, bourbon. Flavor is malts, roasted malts, bourbon, booze, lingering boozy bitter finish. Hmm could have used a little bit of vanilla sweetness. Pleasant though.

Black, fast fading brown head. Boozy licorice nose and palate A bit less booze would seriously improve

500 ml waxed. Aroma has notes of bourbon, vanilla, raisin, licorice, chocolate. Pours extremely dark brown to black with a thin beige head. Taste is lightly sweet with a lightly bitter edge. Very bourbon-forward brew.

Bottle pour shared by AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's an opaque black with no sparkle, head, or lacing but nice viscosity. Aroma is strong bourbon, base roasted malt and dark fruit. Taste is strong bourbon (a bit astringent though mellows as it sits), roasted malt, late chocolate, leather. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, strong aroma and taste with nice balance of other flavors beyond base stout.

500 ml bottle. 2019 vintage . Aroma is mild roast, dark fruit and mild bourbon. The flavor is similar raisins/ dark fruit upfront with the soft roasted backbone. Bourbon is a mild nuance that provides a mild warming after the sip. Nice!

2021 bottle. Black with a tan head that settles to around a cm and lasts a while. Aroma of roast, mocha, brioche, whiskey, some soy sauce. Smooth, luscious. Lots of chocolate with roast and whiskey keeping things savoury. Soy sauce not so evident. No overt alcohol. Only a touch of oak at the end. Bourbon is present but stout runs the show, which is my preference. Good stuff.
