12 oz can, shared by Adam on 7/23/16.
Thin tan head runs to the edges. Violet-magenta edges and low clarity run through this deep mahogany body.
Vanilla, dark chocolate, heavy fudge and prunes. There’s a strange fusel gasoline character and moderate alcohol to it. Quite dull.
Wine-like, dark chocolate, peanut butter and jelly and lots of alcohol. No carbonation and a slick texture but at least it’s not overly sweet or thick. Bittersweet, pruney, earthy. Weird pb&j thing goin on. Not terribly beer-like.

12 oz. can thanks to AdamChandler. Pitch black color, no head. Aroma is weak barrel treatment, oak, coconut, cake batter.
The flavor is weak bourbon barrel, traces of coconut, chocolate, oak. The biggest downfall is the thin body and mouthfeel. Like, not kidding, thin. Good flavor but the body needs help. Add some oats.

Pours as old motoroil to brown-rimmed black beer. Bourbon nose, with vanilla and coffee. Bourbon (added?), vanilla, coffeemilk. Very dense texture, voluptuous, alcoholwarming. Many tasters agreed that this Bourbon flavouring seems as added, rather than due to barrel ageing.
