Brewery draught, 11/30/23. Dark. Tan head sits at light cover. Rich almond nuttiness, caramel and light vanilla with gentle but well-done Bourbon. Light on the coconut, quite malty, no booze noted. Rich almond and moderate coconut. Malty, sweet, lightly spicy bourbon balancing. Good acidity and pepper lingering. Tons of chocolate character bolstered by the cacao. Maybe a bit too much adjunct here. A touch overwhelming. No alcohol noted.
