Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2023. Pours black with a think dark brown head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of bourbon, sweet dark grains and roasted malts with a bit of chocolate coming through. Flavor has sweet dark grains and growing bourbon with touches of chocolate and vanilla supporting.
