Bottle from kihoskh, 12.5% pours pitch black, very black, crazy black, no head. aroma is thick vanilla, roasted malts, toffee, barrel aged booze, very much a dessert beer aroma, but not overly sweet and frosting ish' like many pastry stouts. flavor is roasted malts, licorice, vanilla, sherry, wood, many more subltle flavors like plums, dried dark fruits. Aroma had too much vanilla for my taste, but flavor is near perfect, powerful, insanely complex and very well balanced and smooth. palate and mouthfeel is oily thick, very nice. overall a very well tasting very full flavored very full bodied beer that have a pretty awesome aroma which is the worst part of it, only because the other parts are really, really, really good.
