750 ml bottle purchased at the brewery. Chunks of coconut floating in the stout!! Lmao! The aroma is bolder coconut and very soft vanilla. Bourbon is present but doesn’t slap you in the face. Vanilla and coconut are nice. Great stout. Not sure it was worth $30.00. But tasty.

Bottle pour shared by AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's an opaque black with light viscosity, no head, cubes of coconut floating in suspension, no head or lacing. Aroma is roasted malt, coconut, vanilla and bourbon--not terribly strong. Taste is strong roasted malt, coconut, milder bourbon, vanilla. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, decent complexity but not terribly strong.

750mL bottle thanks to AFHops, drunk 7/2/22. Undetermined clarity but probably murky. No head. Lovely vanilla and nougat with no booze and soft, soft chocolate. Doesn't seem sweet and boozey from the nose. Really nice but and chocolate with rich caramel and spice. Malty, soft and bourbon-forward with spice and vanilla. Strong tannin, light coconut and lightly chewy caramel. Could be better textured and maybe a bit less bourbon-dominated, but still solid.
