On tap at the DFW Flying Saucer. Pours black, with a small, tan head. The aroma is heavy roast, walnuts, maple syrup, and brown sugar. Sweet and sugary, with a nice, mellow, sharp bitterness. Heavy body, with a syrupy, crisp mouthfeel. Pretty quality.

Draft. A- Mint. A- Black color, black liquid, tan head. T- Mint, chocolate. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Search for a version of Temptress all over Texas after hearing rave reviews of this beer and it's variants. Sure enough I found this at Jester King. Provided a nice break from the sours, although stouts are not ideal when it's 112 outside. Very delightful and loaded with chocolate and mint. Almost like liquid girl scout cookies. The grahahm cracker and vanilla are minimal and barely there.

Bottle split at CBC Islington, thanks to LKS, 25/06/18. Black with a well presented tan head. Nose is lIght bourbon trace, spice, chocolate biscuit, dried fruits. Taste comprises mellow bourbon barrel, roast malts, molasses, chocolate, toffee fudge, brown sugar. Medium plus body, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced boost. Ok sipper of an impy but doesn't pull out of third gear for me.
