12 oz. bottle thanks to Willrunforbeer on the share. Date of 4/12/2012!! Ha ha ha ha ha, cellar dive! I guess it is not totally awful for the age. Mild cardboard and paper, roasted malt and dirty chocolate.

Pours a near black from a tap with a light khaki head. Not much aroma from these beers for some reason. Flavor is smoky and oaked, with some coffee. Doesn’t jive, too much of each. Meh.

From Nov 2007
his one pours from 12oz bottle(bottled 091907) a near pitch black with some reddish hues and a small tannish head of foam that recedes to a fine broken layer half way through the session but it has some good lacing.
The smell is of caramel malt, vanilla, chocolate, and bourbon. It's nice.
The taste has all sorts of flavours going on. Lots of vanilla and bourbon and wood with helpings of chocolate, roasted malt, a slight citrus bitterness in the background and it finishes witha nice hot cocoa bitter bite but..it's smooth as all hell and it doesn't hurt that it's only 5.2%abv; it makes it sessionable as hell. lol Man, is this son of a gun drinkable and velvety smooth. Great fullish mouthfeel and it's lightly carbonated. I like this one a lot!! Lots of flavour, easy to drink, smooth, this has it all going on. I'd get this one again, no problem.

12 ounce bottle. Opaque dark brown color. Small creamy beige head. Roasted malt flavor is a bit thin. Notes of oak and vanilla, I think? A bit of chocolate on the finish. No barrels were harmed in the making of this stout.
Nice smoke taste to it.
