CBJ bottleshare. Almost clear deep brown beer, small tan head. Smooth palate, slightly soft and a little viscous. Good dark chocolate malts, a touch of earthy dark chocolate. Coffee. Good fruity bourbon, spicy. Smooth finish. Standard stuff but down very well indeed.

On tap at Magnanimous - Tampa Heights, pours black with a tiny head. Aroma is full of big bourbon barrels, dark sugars, and some vanillin. Flavour is decadent and balanced, with lots of dark sugars, big bourbon presence, and light roast. Driven by the bourbon and sticky sugar. Sweet but not cloying. Finishes on the barrel in a very pleasing way. Very good.
