Shared with Caesar and ShivanDragon @ Mancave Bunnik. Opaque black color, small light brown colored head. Aroma is predominantly bourbon, vanilla, softly malts, caramel. Flavor is malts, caramel, chocolate, bourbon, vanilla, lightly soy sauce. Full body, decent carbonation, thick texture. Heavy but really really good. Wow.

Dark brown, inky and no head. This is toasty, and nutty, with some nice brown sugars and a good barrel accent. This has a lot of alcohol on the palate, up front, with a syrupy dark sugar note like straight molasses, then there's a slight vanilla, and it gets towards a hotter woody finish.

22oz (thx, Brian S.!) @ Ryan's shared with Faress and Josh. Appearance: very dark brown with almost no head. Aroma: a lot of American oak, sweet, bold, boozy. Taste: very boozy, lots of American oak, moderately sweet, some vanilla. Overall: this one is nice, but WB 2019 Shmillett was more balanced and rich.

Poured from 650mL bottle. Near black with no head. Bourbon barrels, brown sugar and molasses, much less ethanol notes than the Shmillet 2019. Same rating. Enjoyable.
