Magnum bottle "with elderflower". Pours a hazy copper with no head. The aroma is pure sugar, caramel, oak, floral. Medium body, brown sugar, oak, boozy, good.

500 ml bottle purchased at the brewery. Bottle date of 8/23/16. Bottle number 334 / 800 at an ABV of 11.5. Mocha head died pretty slowly, with light lacing down the chalice. Aroma is substantial bourbon on top of thick milk chocolate, vanilla, and marshmallow notes.
The bourbon is strong and alive. The bourbon may cut into the flavor as far as overpowering the other elements of the stout. Just a few more months of age would do wonders for this. That said the chocolate, spice, and bourbon is really nice. This exceeded my expectation. Very nice! --- Beer merged from original tick of Stay Puft - Hillrock Bourbon Barrel Aged on 15 Sep 2018 at 01:38 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 9 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.

500 ml bottle purchased at the brewery. Bottle date of 8/24/16. Bottle number 200/300 at an ABV of 10.6. Color is a pitch black ravens feather with slow dying tan head. Aroma is nice, deep milk chocolate, light roast and a hint old spice.
The mouthfeel is proper for the style, nice and full with a smoothness on the texture. The texture is wonderful. The flavor is nice, great chocolate element!

32 oz. pill growler filled at the brewery on 7 October. Hazy yellow color, frothy white head. Aroma is subtle white grape, mild hay, soft florals.
The flavor is again subtle. White grapes, light citrus, floral notes, and a mild pale grain backbone. Body is light with a crisp aftertaste. Texture is real thin but the flavor is nice.
