8 oz. can (duh). Pours black, with a pretty big, foamy, brown head. The nose is dark chocolate, walnut, mild anise, vanilla, and cloves. Sweet and malty, with a mellow, boozy finish. A low, pleasant bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a slick, dusty, and syrupy. Solid, aggressive stout.

8 oz. can. Pours black, with a smaller, bubbly, tan head. The aroma is coffee, cherry wood, light brandy, pleasant tobacco, cloves, and milk chocolate. Sweet and malty, with a mellow, spicy, booziness. Heavy body, slick, and sharp. Lovely, heavy, and decadent.

Straight barrel as id expect from Westbound and down, still wish I was in their membership!

So much barrel on this, so much dark chocolate. Drying finish, medium light body with plenty of flavor.

On tap at the brewery. Pours clear golden with a medium sized off-white head, light lacing. Herbal, tangerine, earthy, bitter finish. Ok, different.
