Rated at Platinum Bierstube. Roasty, complex and heavy with barrel notes, some malts, prunes, figs, chocolate sauce, vanilla, cocoa, earthiness and hints of licorice. Pretty balanced and complex slow sipper.

Bottle. Pours unclear deep mahogany, minimal head or lacing. Aroma is rich, fudge, vanilla, toffee, bourbon, light port, but of leather, treacle. Flavor is sweet, light plus bitter. Full body, silky, decadent.

On tap at Oakland Arbor. Aroma is very malt forward with lots of chocolate and graham cracker notes. A bit lighter notes of toffee, dark caramel and even lighter notes of toasted bread, burnt sugar and molasses. Light bourbon and laochol.nktes with faint oak that adds some almond and char notes. Faint anise, tobacco and leather notes. Pours jet black with a small, thick dark mocha head that recedes fairly quickly to the edges where a thin film lingers. No lacing and sheets of alcohol. Flavor is somewhat sweet with lots of chocolate, graham cracker, toffee and caramel notes. Lighter roast, toasted bread, molasses and treacle notes. Some marshmallow and almond as well. Moderate bitterness and medium light alcohol notes. Light notes of dark fruit, anise and leather. Medium light bourbon notes and hints of oak. Mouthfeel is full bodied and a bit slick with medium carbonation. Low astringency and moderate alcohol warmth. Overall, a really solid BA stout-ish beer but I would expect nothing less from this collab. Really nice malt notes with complimentary barrel character. More leather and tobacco as it warms.
