Bottle, courtesy of Sergey; 10.1% ABV
Black colour, a few brownish bubbles. Mild chocolate aroma, light vanilla and bourbon. Sweet, full bodied; good flavour of dark malt, chocolate, with light rum and vanilla; the alcohol is very well hidden. Excellent.

500mL bottle, sent from wilco (thanks Mike!), pours black with a tiny beige head—looks flat almost. Aroma is very sugary, with molasses, brown sugar, maple syrup, and a hint of bourbon. Flavour is cloyingly sweet, with lots of maple syrup, subdued bourbon, molasses, and brown sugar. That's way too much sugar. And the carbonation is nearly flat. It's a slow sipper for sure. Cloyingly sweet and not carbonated enough. It's tasty in small amounts, but has obvious flaws.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Near black with small tan head. Big coffee aroma, bourbon and vanilla, slightly cloying sweetness. Nice, but a little too sweet.

500ml (thx, Jonathan M.!) at Phill's place. Appearance: dark brown with a beige head. Aroma: coffee, some fruity and light bourbon character. Taste: nice body, very sweet and fruity, coffee. Overall: reminds me KTCYFA non-BA version in the smell, pretty good, but not sure whether I would drink ot again.

Med brown. No head. On the nose, very rich barrel and massive coffee. Quite sweet, lots of bourbon, touch of alcohol. Again, the coffee is pretty huge on this, and that makes it a lot of fun. Viscous and a little bit sticky. Not refined or anything, but sweet and a fun.

500mL bottle, pours black with a tiny tan head. Aroma is loaded with intense coffee, moderate bourbon, and a little roast. Flavour is quite sweet, with sweet coffee, vanilla, moderate bourbon, sugars, and a bit of booze. Intensely sweet, almost cloying. A little too sugar but it's very nice.

500mL bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is pretty rich and complex, with lots of rye barrels, vanilla beans, and molasses. Flavour is really rich, with vanilla beans, cocoa, black liquorice, and rye barrels. Really inky and thick. Complex and well-crafted, though lacks a bit of refinement. Very tasty.
