The delicious result of several years of masterful re-re-remixing, this glorious cuvée would be a shoe-in to headline the NOW THAT’S WHAT I CALL DECADENCE tour—if tours were still a thing. This year’s amalgam consists of Beastmaster (aged in bourbon & applejack barrels), Cloud Daggers, Doom Hawk (aged in bourbon barrels), Dragon Mask (aged in rye whiskey barrels), Infinity Gauntlet (aged in bourbon barrels), Mega Devil's Teeth (aged in Kentucky whiskey & rye whiskey), Modem Tones (aged in bourbon barrels), Monsters Park (aged in bourbon & applejack barrels), Parliament of Birds (aged in bourbon barrels), and Suggestion of Mass (aged in bourbon barrels). Your first sip may be followed by a spontaneous little jig, so don’t be alarmed when it happens.

On tap at the brewery pours out dark brown almost black topped with a small head. Nose is sweet chocolate caramel toffee molasses rich bourbon barrel some spice notes. Taste is more of the nice sweet chocolate caramel fudge notes bourbon barrel spice keeps it from getting to sweet.

650ml bottle. Sweet, heavy and slightly syrupy with some bourbon, toffee, oak and fudge. Quite heavy and sweet.

Black colour. Thick body, viscous, rich chocolate, brown sugar, some rye spiciness, strong bourbon, sweet liquorice, dry prunes, cookies, and strong alcohol feeling though.
Excellent.

22oz (thx, Guillaume L.!) on Alex's porch. Appearance: very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma: tons of barrels, rye, chocolate, brown sugars. Taste: sweet, booze, chocolate, some dark fruits and candies, rye and brown sugar notes. Overall: very nice, somewhat reminds me a BBOMB.

FLLLN, really wasn't fair to open this after BBT, but Gino G. Shoots from the hip so this was how the barrels tumbled. Of course it was delicious booziness that nearly made me blind but provided a nice contrast to BBT as well in some sort of a liver punch
