Pours dark brown from the bottle. A frothy to creamy tan head lingers. Aroma is vanilla, sherry, faint whiskey. Taste is sweet up front, tart and boozy at the finish. Not sure why but the stout/sherry/whiskey combination, while sounding promising, is not really working for me here. There’s a collision of flavors and a boozy rawness that I would prefer to be better disguised. Body is medium, sticky, carbonation is soft. Okayish but below average for the style.
