Bottle from Westhill Service Station. It pours darkest brown to black with a small dark tan head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, chocolate covered coffee beans, vanilla, bourbon soaked oak, toasty, earthy, choc chip cookies, pie crust and a touch of tobacco. The taste is slick, rich roasted malt, quite bitter actually, toasty, nutty, charred oak, touch of burnt toast, vanilla, choc chip cookies, spicy, toothy, chewy, tannin, coffee, dark fruits, cacao, some alcohol and praline with a toasty finish. Medium+ body and fine carbonation. Rather nice, but I think the espresso version takes the win.
