Pours a pretty brown hue, but the nose mostly keeps to itself. Starts with a bitter burst of hops, then rolls into a roasted center with the slightest of apple-tinted lager notes. Finishes with a mocha vibe piggybacked by aspirin-like hoppy fade. Thin feel, weak taste, made out of whack by the bitterness. Not overbearing, just a bit much for such an easygoing beer.

Thin, closer to a porter than a stout, with an ugly pour that doesn’t bode well. Good thing the beer tastes decent, with a big mocha front that fades into a moderately sweet, berry-tinged middle and a bitter chocolate finish. Mostly coffee, though, and not particularly strong coffee at that. Decent.

Bottle. Pour inky black, small creamy dark brown head, dissipates to a ring with decent lacing. Aroma is rich, molasses initially, then breaking to bourbon, vanilla mocha, hints of coffee. Flavor is fairly sweet, light plus bitter, rich bourbon mocha vanilla notes with light molasses and hints of coffee. Full body, creamy mouthfeel. This is a hell of a solid BA RIS. I was totally surprised.

Bottle: Black with a huge, puffy tan head. Allspice, light chocolate scent. Taste is mildly spicy....chocolate malt, soft orange malt. Slightly different....light and airy....sort of reminds of the stuff inside a Three Musketeers bar..... A very soft, herbal bittering......pretty decent.

Can. Deep brown body with a frothy tan head, rapidly diminishing. Aroma of coffee, roast, chocolate. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes moderately sweet and lightly bitter. Medium body, watery/chalky texture, moderate carbonation. Yep, coffee and cream taste. OK. Too bad about the chalky mouthfeel.
