Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a dark brown foamy head with some retention and some lacing notes. Aroma of chocolate notes with some coffee and vanilla notes with nice bourbon notes. Taste is also a mix of chocolate notes with some nice floral coffee notes with some vanilla notes with some woody bourbon notes and a semi-sweet finale. Body is pretty full with an oily texture and good carbonation with light discernible alcohol notes. Nice pastry stout with good balance overall enhanced by the bourbon notes.
