375ml bottle pours out black topped with a small tan head. Nose is nice sweet chocolate roast malts some coffee and bourbon barrel. Taste is more of the nice chocolate coffee combo.

Bottle from 2021 release set. Black pour, thin ring of beige head. Aroma is a big hit of boozy roasty malts. Taste brings a touch of sweetness, light chocolate and coffee notes, and an ample supply of alcohol heat. Full and warming.

On draught at the brewery as part of SF Beer Week Event. Pours black with a minimal tan head. Lots of fusal alcohol. Slight vanilla and booze. Moderate complexity and slight dark fruit.

Bottle thanks to Nolen - Gold Wax top == Bourbon Barrel Aged. Pours opaque black small brown creamy head, dissipates slowly, nice lacing. Aroma is bourbon forward, cocoa, vanilla, coconut. Fully sweet, medium bitter, rich but gets a bit harsh as you drink it. Full body. Hot as hell.
