750 ml bottle. Aroma is bold oak and macadamia. Love the nose!! You need to like Woodford to really enjoy this. The bourbon is oak and spice forward. Spicy notes help cut the sweetness.

Bottle shared by Chris, drunk 12/9/23. Thick, viscous, no head. Rich antique leather with toasty sugar and nut paste. Some big sugar notes but definitely bourbony. Very spicy, very elegant. Just a touch sweeter than I'd prefer but no excess. A bit grapey. But strong, spicy, rich Woodford with extra oak. Sweet, rich, grape, cherry, peanut, jelly, so soft and with good acidity and maltiness. It's sweet, it's rich but there's that normally sharp, hot gross Woodford that works about as well as possible with all this sweetness.

Bottle shared by AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! An opaque, inky black with nice viscosity. Aroma is strong roasted malt, marshmallow, rich bourbon, oak, macadamia nuts. Taste is strong roasted malt, marshmallow, somewhat harsh alcohol into sinuses. Smooth, soft carbonation, somewhat harsh alcohol. Nice aroma and taste but a bit of a harsh alcoholic turn.

Chocolate, whiskey, marshmellow. Pours black and oily without any head light most of their beers. Bittersweet finish with lots of booze. Light orange peel. Tap at Snally.

Sampled at Snallygaster 2023. Murky black, tight beige head. Coconut jumps out and I can't believe it's not an adjunct here. Big brownie and cocoa. Flavor has all the same with some vanilla. Full bodied, sticky finish.
