Black with a medium sized foamy brown head. Very boozy with a strong whiskey presence followed by a hint of Windex and toasty malt. Long finish. Moderately full bodied.

22oz bottle pours a translucent black, big cap of brown head. Nose has malt and caramel, some harsh whiskey, sweet, some brownie dough. Flavor has some smoke, which helps balance the chocolate and caramel sweetness, the barrel is there, but the malt backbone and the smoke really balance everything. Finishes off dry, full bodied.
