Aroma is dark dried fruity, bordering slightly souris or tart, figs, alc. bite, chocolate, roasted malts.Flavor is as advertised chocolate cookies, or perhaps dry chocolate cake, but the figs are much more subtle than in the aroma, the overall feel is sweet, not dark fruity, tastes like a good dessert chocolate cake with frosting and all. bit sweet. very pastry stoutish, but fairly taste although quite sweet. good dark chocolate, there is some faint dark dried fruits just before the ending. quite complex.

Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a dark brown foamy head with some retention and some lacing notes. Aroma of chocolate notes with some bourbon notes and light vanilla with residual sugar notes. Taste is also a mix of chocolate notes with some vanilla notes with some bourbon and vanilla notes and a sweet finale with figs and light graham cracker notes. Body is pretty full with an oily texture and good carbonation with no real discernible alcohol notes. Nice variant of the original bourbon stout with good chocolate flavors with sweet finish.
Malm� April tasting - sweet and roasted dark malty with lots of rich chocolate, some fudge and toffee, getting the fig notes coming through nicely, dark dried fruity figs, bourbon infused malty base, lingering sweet dark malty close. Beautiful.

Dark brown, with a thin head. Nice fig, a bit of booze, decent complexity. Deep fruitiness. I like the fig thing going on here. Excellent.

old review from notes. I liked this more than some bourbon county beers, on the sweet side, lots of dried fruit and sugar. noticeable alcohol.
