Ticks: 6

The base of this beer is our Award Winning Imperial Stout aged in Bourbon Barrels. It was then blended with a different Imperial Stout, and Robust Porter, whereupon it was conditioned on Vanilla Beans to become Phantom Ship.

Phantom Ship sails onto your palate with the bourbon at the forefront. The vanilla beans follow, smoothing out the bold bourbon notes and creating a silky smooth, lingering finish. Additional flavours of cookie dough, sea salt, and raisin round out this complex barrel-aged stout.

Can from the brewery, through Agatha
Dark colour, near black. Nice aroma of chocolate, mild rum. It's a bit thin and dry when compared with most Imperial Stouts available nowadays, but it has a good chocolate flavour; the finish is sadly even thinner; maybe a tad metallic too.
Good, but overpriced.

Poured from 473mL can. Dark brown with small beige head. Bourbon, vanilla, chocolate, could use more depth, but it's decent.

16oz @ Ryan's shared with Alex. Appearance: nice brown with a beige head. Aroma: quite similar to the Powder Keg, bourbon barrel, chocolate, light meaty notes. Taste: along the same lines, chocolate, some roasted malt bitterness. Overall: not bad.

440 ml can. Pours a very dark brown with moderate tan head. Aromas of dark caramel, dark raisins, plastic, and roasted malts. Flavors follow same with additional oak and weak bourbon. Seems thin and at odds. Disappointing for Howe Sound.

473mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of bourbon barrels, booze, light vanilla beans, and medium roast. Flavour is boozy, with lots of bourbon barrels, alcohol heat, vanilla beans, and medium roast. Nice bourbon character and a nice blend of beers, but not particularly complex. Pleasant.
