On tap as Dreams II. Pours black with little head. Aromas of dark caramel, coconut, soft sweet oaky bourbon, vanilla and slick roasty malts. Flavors follow same with additional candied banana and sharper barrel notes. Lots going on but a beautiful integration. Sticky.

750ml @ Josh's (thx for the beer, man!) Cave after the last takedown of the day. Appearance: brown with some floating micro pieces (of bananas?). Aroma: mix of bananas, nuts, some caramel, and American oak, some light tartness. Taste: along the same lines, very smooth. Overall: this one is good, but not as good as original Dreams and not as good as other Structures BA stouts.

Very dark brown, no head. There's a lot of banana on the aroma, some hazelnut, with a lot of dark sugars, and that depth of dark sugar is what makes this. It's got a big body. There's banana that adds body, sugar and also flavour. It's good, not as great as the first Dreams, mind you, but that was a legend. Purchased Apr 2023.

Bottle. Pours black with smalll tan head that lasts. The aroma is hazelnut and banana. Slick body, banana, cocoa, roast, boozy, very nice.

On tap at Structures, pours black with a small tan head. Nose is full of hazelnuts, banana and bourbon in good cohesion. Flavour is extremely rich but not brutal, with lots of banana upfront, accentuated by bourbon and a hint of toasted nuts. Very rich but again, not brutal — finishing sweet, bourbony and banana-y. Wonderful.
