19th June 2026Dealing With The Devil again tasting at CBJ. Thanks to Wingman. Opaque dark brown beer, small and short lived bubbly tan head. Airy soft palate, reasonable fine carbonation, fine for the style. Soft dark malts, plenty of vanilla, a mild dark chocolate where the vanilla intersects with the mellow dark malts. Some alcohol spice on the finish. Tasty but not that complex.

Dark brown, no head. It's got intense bitter chocolate, light vanilla. On the palate, it's got more of the bitter chocolate, rounded vanilla. Mellow barrel, actually, but it's refined. I like that lingering almost burnt-type note. Good bitterness. Excellent, damn it hits my pocket in terms of bitter chocolate and quality barrel.

22 oz. bottle, pours jet black with a tiny brown head. Aroma is rich, with tons of vanilla, dark sugars, and plenty of bourbon barrels. Flavour is extremely rich, with tons of dark sugars, rich vanilla, and big bourbon notes that round things out. Extremely rich and sticky, with shitloads of vanilla and bourbon to round things out. Massive BA vanilla stout. Excellent, but I can't call it elegant.

Poured from 650mL bottle. Black with minimal tan head. Vanilla and old burnt woody bourbon, good balance, enjoyable.
