Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a dark brown foamy head with some retention and some lacing notes. Aroma of chocolate notes with some strong woody bourbon notes, some vanilla and light brandy notes. Taste is also a mix of chocolate notes with some strong woody notes, some bourbon and vanilla with some noticeable apple brandy notes. Body is full with an oily texture and good carbonation with some discernible alcohol notes. Solid huge double barrel aged stout.

42th Birthday gathering. 750ml (thx, Alex G.!) @ 🏡
Aroma: American oak, bold.
Taste: along the same lines, quite boozy, woody.
Overall: quite good, but less bold and interesting than others from them.
