Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a medium brown foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of roasted malt with some bourbon notes with some tart notes also noticeable. Taste is also a great mix of bourbon notes with some roasted malt notes with light residual sugar with some tart notes clearly noticeable. Body is lighter then expected with some medium carbonation. Enjoyable but missing some balance and need body to be more full.

Bottled at Brother’s Beer Bistro, Ottawa. Black with small beige head. Bourbon, licorice and vinegar up front. Tart with medium-full body and rounded mouthfeel. Blackberries, licorice, coffee and blueberries, some vinegar and oak. Rich, yet harmonious.
