Tap at brewery. Sabins Stout was probably best beer here but the barrel aged version is just over the top bourbon flavors completely dominates. you get the hooch and vanilla and maybe hints of the old chocolate and cola. same pretty black pour.

Tap at teh brewery much better than the original stout but concerning that they don’t know why its different. deep black pour with beige head. nose is chocolate and cola. Tastes of chocolate, berry, cola, touch maple, and some licorice. more carbonation and livelier fuller palate.

Growler shared in NYC. Pours clear, deep brown with a frothy off-white head. The nose has rich bread, dark fruits, chocolate. Medium sweet flavor with sugary dark bread, chocolate, some berries, roast, dough. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes fairly sweet, with burnt chocolate, more dark fruits, blackberry, scorched earth. Good stuff.

Sampled at 3rd annual RI Brewfest; Flavor starts lightly sweet with pale malt base with caramel hints. Lighter body, nearly thin and very grainy. A dusty grain flavor shows throughout the brew. I get very little, if any hop profile at all. This one needs some work.
