Draft @ FoBAB 2009, Chicago, IL. Pours a dark brown color with a small tan head. Has a roasted malty chocolate and raspberry aroma. Roasted malty chocolate and caramel flavor with hints of coffee and raspberry and hints of bourbon barrel. Has a warming roasted malty chocolate finish with hints of raspberry and bourbon in the aftertaste.

On tap at RBY, Dec. 17. Is this from the same base batch as the Black Forest Porter? Maybe. Color is almost black, but with red edges. Smell has a bit more fruit to it than the Black Forest. Alcohol is well hidden in the smell and the taste. There is more of a raspberry taste to this one, too. Bourbon notes still "fill in the chinks" rather than trying to take over. Only a slight after taste. Clean malts with just a trace of alcohol heat. A smidgen of hop here and there makes for a big, but balanced beer.
