Can shared at tasting. Opaque black color, small light brown colored head. Aroma is malts, heavy espresso, dark malts, roast. Flavor is malts, dark malts, roasted malts, again heavy espresso, don't really get the barrel aging tbh but it's a nice beer for sure!

16oz can from Tavour. Dark brown pour, bubbly beige head fades to thin ring. Boozy fudge aroma. Taste is sweet, brown sugar, fudge, bourbon, hint of caramel. Booziness right up front and all the way through.

Aroma is mellow coffee and vanilla on top of whiskey. Flavor is quite exquisite. The coffee overrides a vanilla touch with a nice lingering whiskey finish. Very little alcohol is found. Full-bodied with a smooth texture. This is quite delightful.

Very well balanced. Coffee, light whiskey, roast and very light vanilla. Great, well balanced mix of all things here. Black pour with good head. Bittersweet finish with a touch of booze. Tap at brewery.

16oz can pours motor oil black with a ring of beige head that faded fast. Nose has chocolate and peanut butter, maple, some praline, vanilla. Flavors of chocolate, big maple, vanilla, malt soda, prunes and raisins, a little pepper. Finishes very full bodied, oily, sweet, boozy. Nicely done. Plenty of balance despite all the adjuncts.
