Cask. Pitch black, nice beige head, lasts quite awhile. Big whiskey aroma, dominates beer somewhat. Flavor again has a big whiskey character, as it warms, big roasted coffee character comes through. Medium smooth mouthfeel.

Cask: This is cask conditioned Beernormous aged with Jim Beam. Moderate aromas of coffee, light Jim Beam, and hints of chocolate and vanilla. Dark brown with no transparency and a moderate tan head with decent retention. Moderate chocolate presence up front with some hints of vanilla. Jim Beam is subtle in the middle. Finishes with moderate coffee that increases as it warms and a mild citrus hoppiness. Very well done with just enough Jim Beam presence.
