Tap @ Bailey’s Taproom... Poured jet black with a light brown head. Nose had a lot of coffee and a roasty tone. Still mostly coffee on this over whiskey. But as it warmed, and with some swirls of the snifter, created more whiskey, oak and wood flavors. Roasted malt and molasses bitterness. Lots more coffee acidic bitterness towards the finish.

Complex aromas of bourbon, vanilla, wood, chocolate and massive roast with some resiny hop aroma as a counterpoint. Dark brown with a decent dark tan head that is fairly persistent. Medium malty-good sweetness with medium resiny hop bitterness to balance. Medium+ body, moderate carbonation, nice slicky texture, well balanced between hops and malts but a nice dry and astringent finish thanks to the ample roast and contribution from hops.
