On tap. Pours with a black body with a large and lasting fluffy tan head that leaves good lacing. Aromas are nutty, cocoa, barrel, brown sugar, molasses, bourbon. Light esters, a bit of dark fruit. Flavors are rich, nutty, brown sugar, barrel, bourbon, chocolate. Medium to full bodied. Minimal alcohol notes. Dryish, with some light tannins to further the perception. Very approachable, nearly a drinkable barrel aged stout. Some light coffee notes. Medium bubbles. Very well done.

Draft at Max’s, Baltimore. Deep opaque black with some brownish edges. Rich and sweet, the coffee and the bourbon play off of each other quite well. Thick and full bodied. Semi-mild carbonation, but the bitter chocolate and hops more than make up for it. Well done.

Cask. Blackish beer with a tan head. Bourbon aroma. Bourbon and caramel flavor with light vanilla. Medium bodied. Bourbon and light stone fruit lingers with caramel and light vanilla. The bartender was sure this was the Imperial Stout and not the Cap Stout, so it could be a different beer...

Sampled at Max’s American Beer Fest. I was very excited to try this. Pours a nearly opaque black, slightly watery, with a ringing beige head. Aroma is very mild, vanilla, coffee, nuts and not a whole lot else. Flavor is a little better, slightly peppery, slightly boozy, some light wood, coffee grounds. Full bodied with a bitter finish. A little bit of a letdown. Frankly, I think the barrel aging eliminated some of the cappucino flavors.
