12 oz. Bottle thanks to Adrien W. Pitch black in color, fast dying head. Aroma consists of funky oak, weak chocolate, old coffee
The stout picks up a light funky hint from the barrel. Malt backbone is weak and the body is really thin for an oatmeal stout. I don’t know how or why this is so thin but it is. Got absolutely no bourbon anyplace here. Perhaps they used the barrel too often and the bourbon was spent. Pretty big letdown.

Bottle. A- Yogurt, green apple. A- Black color, dark liquid, tan head. T- Green apple, tart, oak. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, O- This had a bit of infection going on. No bourbon, no chocolate, just a bit of yogurt and apple to it. Somehow it wasn’t disgusting but far far from good or what it should have been.
