Bottle @ Bad Seed Beer Fest, 2025. Pours Black with bubbles on top. Really sweet with a lot of spices and stuff we really dont need in here. Almost ruined. Stop messing about. This almost perfect base beer struggles here.

Poured pitch black in color, thin off white head.
Bourbon nose is lovely. Flavor has coconut, some roasted malts. Round mouthfeel. Warming, some heat from the ABV.
Bottle at home. Pours black, nose is chocolate, coconut, vanilla fudge, roasted, hint of spicy ginger, taste is vanilla, chewy, coconut, chocolate, oak, warming ginger. 8/9/9/8/8.5

500 ml bottle. Thanks Brian and TJ on the share. Aroma is a huge amount of ginger, and maybe trace coconut. The ginger is so strong that it nearly drowns out the bourbon. Almost hard to find the barrel. Real huge disappointment.
Smooth, sweetish and slightly roasty with some dry earthiness, hints of coconut, vanilla, caramel and cocoa, faint notes of licorice. Okay

Bottleshare at CBJ, thanks to Wingman for the bottle. Near clear dark brown beer, tidy pale tan head. Airy palate, semi dry, good fine carbonation. Rich chocolate malts, good dark chocolate malt cream. Rich fruity spicy ripe fruity bourbon with a ripe fruitiness. Soft coconut, boozy. Smooth finish. Nice.
