bottle with MrsSwoop, darker black pour, chocolaty aroma, light bourbon, tobacco cigarette thing going on, Immediate spritzy mouthfeel chocolate, cigarette, medium bourbon notes than increase as beer warms. Higher carbonation seems off. Decent aroma & flavor, mouthfeel & carbonation seems off

2.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 10/20 wedgie9 (1340) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - JUL 24, 2011
Tasted on 7/23/11 from a 12oz bottle sent to me as an extra in a trade. Pours an opaque, nearly black, brown with a massive (I mean stupid big) light brown head that really doesn’t recede at all. As a matter of fact, after waiting ten minutes, I decided to scoop out a bunch of the head with a spoon just so I could finally drink it. The nose is dominated by tons of coffee, dark and milk chocolate, molasses, burnt toast, and the underlying vanilla and coconut oak aromas. The flavor is very roasted with some coffee, toast, and vanilla, along with a hot alcohol burn. The body is impossible to detect, due to the ridiculously high amount of carbonation, along with a long toasted and vanilla finish.
5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20 BeeriedEyed (155) - USA - APR 3, 2011
An excellent stout. Perfectly balanced the best stout on draft that I have tasted. Try it if you can.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 BillKismet (2649) - Seattle, Washington, USA - MAR 21, 2011
Stygian darkness fills the glass and is covered with a coffee-chocolate cream layer. This brew does not smack you in the face with bourbon, it is quite nuanced and interwoven with the roast and quite subdued in the aroma. The bourbon is decidedly more detectable in the flavor and melds well with the coffee roast flavor. Dy coffee bean burnt finish. More sophisticated that the typical bourbon-aged brew.
