Bottle shared by/with Johnny. Thanks! Opaque nearly black color, small off-white to beige head that disappears quickly. Aroma and flavor are malts, sweet sugary, bourbon, vanilla, soft roast, boozy a bit. Thick syrupy texture, full body, soft carbonation. Pretty damn nice.

22 oz. bottle, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small beige head. Aroma is remarkably rich, with loads of bourbon barrels, dark brown sugars, and rich caramel. Flavour is very rich, with lots of lush bourbon, followed by brown sugar, dark dried fruits, and caramel. Sweet but not cloying, balanced perfectly as usual for a MT big boy. The bourbon character is just phenomenal here. Wonderful.

22oz bottle pours out amber brown topped with a small head. Nose is nice sweet malts rich bourbon barrel notes vanilla and caramel. Taste is more of the nice sweet malts well balanced bourbon barrel kick.

Bomber at share. Ruddy brown pour, small tan bubbly head. Malty aroma, boozy notes. Taste is malty, leathery, woody, molasses, bourbon, brown sugar. Nice!
