A special batch brewed for the first time this year. The brewmaster told me it would be brewed every year, and with good reason. This is simply their best beer. Poured black with a light brown head. Aroma was a strong bourbon, complimented by chocolate. Flavor was a creamy chocolate, bourbon, vanilla, and some coffee to round it out. The finish was slightly bitter, and the alcohol barely noticable. I was told it was over 10%. Good body and great flavor. Very similar to the GI Bourbon County Stout.
