Sample (thanks fonefan!). Black colour, small head. Aroma is chocolate, maple syrup, alcohol, some vanilla, ashy tones. Surprisingly complex. Flavour is chocolate, some toffee, mild alcohol, some dried fruits, roasted tones with ashes. Rather sweet. Good dessert beer.

very hazy dark brown color. Looks like a dirty milkshake. Bourbon chocolate milkshake all the way. The nose is amazing. Heavy, tons of chocolate and vanilla and bourbon. Big badass and tons of oak. Big bad and lovely.

Bottle. A dark brown beer with a small, dense, dark beige head. Some lacing. The aroma has lots of dark chocolate, with alcohol, delicious coffee and some brown sugar and dark dried fruit. Cocoa, vanilla, oak hints. It's full bodied and warming, sweet, with a delicious blend of dark flavors. Roasted malts, coffee, chocolate and brown sugar, toffee. Alcohol. Everlasting finish. Super delicious, and the 17.2% ABV was well harnessed. 240615
