Beginning with an imperial stout, aged in bourbon barrels, we took your input and scoured the globe to find the best ingredients available. Cacao nibs from Ghana, Tahitian Vanilla, and Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee, roasted with our friends at Mostra.

Black, looks heavy, some brown head. Heavy bourbon smell, some chocolate. Boozy, nice thickness, rich. Taste is plenty bourbon, rich cacao, very soft vanilla, light coffee, and some roast. Very intense, all flavours come together well.

750ml bottle. Smooth, sweetish and heavy with vanilla, coffee, cocoa, bourbon and chocolate notes. Quite well balanced and tasty. Good stuff. --- Beer merged from original tick of Sinner's Blend 2018 on 01 Dec 2019 at 16:57 - Score: 9

Bottle. Pours black with thick tan head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is strong roasted malt, fudge, roast. Slick body, dark chocolate, roast, very boozy, rich, enjoyed this.

Taste at bottle share. Wowzers! Knocked my socks off. Silky, oily black pour. Roasty, sweet aroma. Taste is more of the beautifully blended roast grains with a touch of coffee, hints of vanilla and cocoa. Just superb. Star of the night.

fairly hazy dark brown color. Dry, tons of brown sugar, raisin, vanilla, coffee, chocolate super dry. Tons of oak character to finish. Extraordinarily drinkable. Excellent,
