7.9
Appearance - 9 | Aroma - 7.5 | Flavor - 7.5 | Texture - 10 | Overall - 7

Bottle. Pours inky black, small brown head, good lacing. Aroma is deep and rich, vanilla, fudge, bourbon. Flavor is fully sweet and heavy on vanilla. Full body, creamy mouthfeel. Too much vanilla for my taste. Its funny, 15 years ago vanilla BA stouts were like manna from heaven, now I just wish they would leave vanilla out of beer as a rule.
