On tap at Man in the Moon, Stockholm. Black with a small tan head. Aroma of chocolate, dark malt, vanilla and some oak. The same in the taste. Kind of smooth and with a full body. Also nicely balanced.

Sample at the Hoppin’ Frog Tasting Room during the "Vanilla Bitters Barrel-Aged BORIS Release Party!" on 03/11/2017. Brown-black color with a medium thick foamy tan head that diminishes gradually to a film. Patchy lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malt, vanilla and oak. Full-bodied with flavors of oaky bourbon, vanilla, roast malt and dark chocolate. The finish is semi sweet vanilla, bourbon and malt. Good beer all around.
