This was delcious and I ended up having a pint after trying the rest of their lineup. Rich and roasty with some big milk chocolate flavors some dark fruit bread and finally finishing up with just a hint of vanilla.

Creamy head, some red light visible. Chocolate flavors and fizzy raisens... creamy bourbon chocolate malt nose. Not too bad.

Slightly roasty. Hazy brown color, a little dry in the taste. Not amazing, but probably better than most of what this brewery makes.

No head or lacing. Dark red, ruby. The aroma is light, nothing peeking through yet. The flavor is roasty & malty, a bit of hops come through. finishes balanced.
