Bottle thanks to franksnbeans. Poured a deep brown color with a moderate, fluffy beige head that receded to a layer. Aroma of some charred oak, smoke, some bourbon, and light roast. Light, smooth entry leads into a some chocolate and lightly roasted malts, which transitions into a smoky, peat flavored finish with some drying oak. A bit thin on the palate, but I do like the light bourbon-oak finish, it isn’t over powering and adds some nice character. Thanks for the beer Beans.

Sep 1, 2008 12oz bottle thanks to mmm/beer. Pours black with a tan head and good lacing. Smell is of wood, faint bourbon and a smoky peat flavor. Taste is only a slight hint of bourbon but more of roasted malt and some coffee and tobacco. Mouthfeel is disappointingly thin for an impy stout.

Opaque black, small tan head. Woody-oak- a bit toasted aroma. Light palate for this kind of beer. Lightly roasted, chocolaty, vanilla and oak. Easy to drink barrel-aged stout.
