Apr 10, 2009 750 ml bottle via trade with Brigadier - Pours a dark brown color with a one and a half finger thick light brown head that slowly fades. Nice lacing. Aroma is oak/bourbon, chocolate, roasted malt and vanilla. All the aromas mess well without one particular component being over bearing. Flavor is much of the same with a little more oak/bourbon presence. Alcohol is quite noticeable in the finish. Medium to full body. A very nice beer. Thanks Nathan.

Apr 8, 2009 Shared at HSBG. Pour is pitch oily black with a creamy brown head. Aromas of burbon, chocolate, roasted malts, and slight coffee. Flavor is loaded with burbon, chocolate, and roasty goodness. This brew is extremly drinkable and smooth. The burbon flavor was prerfect. Amazing!

Apr 3, 2009 This starts with a milk chocolate aroma, with hints of vanilla, alcohol, and whiskey. The pour is an opaque black, with a big tan head. The predominant flavor in the beer itself is the bourbon, the finish has an intertwining of bourbon, vanilla, milk chocolate, and alcohol. Mouthfeel is smooth and creamy, a fine beer, if a little over priced.

Mar 24, 2009 Very dark, black, coffee head. Hot alcohol, sweet mocha aroma. Still hot and brash and young. Too soon.

Mar 18, 2009 Bottle shared by yobdoog (thanks again). Pours a jet black with a thick tan to brown head which fades rather quickly. The nose is almost one dimensionally bourbon, leaning in excess to rubbing alcohol at times. Body is creamy and thick, with a nice sweetness, but a slightly off putting bubblegum note. Long light bitter finish. Pretty solid, but remarkably overpriced. At $25 a bomber around here, one can walk away with 3-5 times as much equally good, or better beer.
