In the crypt of a Kostanjevica monastery just a few kilometers from our brewery there is a thomb of the Bourbons. The last king of France found the final resting place there.
The Last Bourbon is a thick imperial stout, barrel aged in 3 different bourbon barrels for one year.

0.33l bottle, huge thanks Imro! Blackish very dark brown body, no head. Huge bourbon aroma, vanilla and raisins, smooth. Smooth, roasty, creamy taste, some bourbon notes, vanilla, chocolate, herbal finish, some bitterness. Lovely, just lovely, not too much, quite drinkable for what it is. Maybe it's the extra aging but this just works!

0,33 l bottle. Pours dark brown minimal tan head. Aroma is very rich, chocolate, dark fruit, caramel, slightly woody. Alcohol is well hidden. Flavor generally follows aroma, but it has more bourbon notes, licorice and coffee. Taste is heavy sweet and medium bitter. Body is full, texture rich and oily, carbonation very gentle. Finish is long, bittersweet, bourbon and alcohol is well present. I like it.

Bottle via Bombovar. Actually not so think, it has a medium, even medium-thin body and very low carbonation. The wax here did precisely nothing to stop the beer being almost completely flat. Medium bitterness, light sweetness and astringency, and medium alcohol - which while not being exactly sharp, feels still kinda too much because of the rest of the taste being rather weak, feeling a bit watery. Med-light cocoa and coffee, overall low on malts. Medium bourbon, slightly woody. Overall the bourbon is nice, but the base beer is weak and watery. Average.
