375ml bottle, 2017 vintage. Rich, roasted malt aroma with notes of chocolate, licorice, molasses, vanilla, oak and bourbon. Pours inky black with a thin mocha brown head that has very little retention and lacing. Starts with rich roasted malt, chocolate, licorice and oak flavors as well as having a rich, full body and slick, viscous mouthfeel. Finishes impeccably smooth with molasses, vanilla and bourbon flavors. Excellent imperial stout, chewy and flavorful.
