Rated at Brewskival 2023. Sweetish, chewy juicy and tropical fruity with some pine, citrus and floral notes. A bit stuffy, doesn't feel super fresh.

Old can. Was wondering why it tasted like stale Gaffel.

22 oz shared by ClarkVV. Side-by-side-by-side with two other variants. Oak, chocolate, and spice. Flavor has a light chocolate/ mild cake base. Not fudgey or overly sweet. Balance is exceptional and I got to say, the booze is really hidden. Awesome.

Bottle pour shared by ClarkVV--thanks, Clark! It's an inky black with nice viscosity. Aroma is nice Elijah Craig, roasted malt, wood. Taste is strong Elijah Craig, sweet/roasted malt, wood. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with silky smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. This is really smooth and Elijah Craig is the perfect complement to stouts.

500mL bottle drunk 7/22/23. Clear, purple tinted, dark brown. Tan head instantly to ring. Well that smells like EC, thank God, and it smells miiice. Savory, rich, fudgey, some spice and pepper. Light warming alcohol. Soft malty, excellent barrel character, so much better than the Willett pot still bourbon version. Pepper, spice, savory notes. Assertive but still balanced. It's a lighter bodied stout, though. Which, it's not too syrupy sweet, but conversely, it's kind of light. Still not in love with the base beer but EC 8 is amazing.

22 oz shared by ClarkVV. Side-by-side-by-side with two other variants. Aroma is soft Willet bourbon, roasted grain. Flavor follows with alcohol restrained with only mild warming up the sip. Mild sugar in the heart of the stout. Good.

Bottle drunk 7/22/23. Clear dark mahogany, purple tints. Hint of tan head as bubbles. Spicy, somewhat strong bourbon. Chocolate fudge but not sugary. Rich, savory, but maybe a bit more spice or sumptuous malt would be preferred? Not sharp, though. Well, it's fine, I guess. I am disappointed as it's sweeter than I'd hoped. Kinda popcorny, sugary, not very thick or comforting in texture. Maybe it's the whiskey, though I doubt that. A bit of warming alcohol in the end. Eh, just a strange texture with cotton candy-like sugariness.
