Bottle thanks to Chow. Pours a very dark brown with medium tan head that lasts. The aroma is a strong hazelnut, vanilla, and bourbon. Medium mouth, roast, hazelnut, vanilla, nice booze, very nice.

Bottle thanks to instagibmo. Pours inky black with a small brown head. Aroma is initially interesting, prominent hazelnut, coffee, cocoa, hints of bourbon and vanilla. Flavor is much the same, fairly sweet and medium bitter. After the second sip I was hit with a wave of memories of cheap hazelnut coffee from hotel room coffemakers, and that pretty much ruined it for me. Fullish body, creamy mouthfeel.

Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2015. Pours black with a very dark brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a beautiful hazelnut note with a bit of sweet dark grains and roasted malts backing. Flavor has a great hazelnut note as well with sweet dark grains and a touch of roasted malts supporting.
