I love the way this beer looks. Very dark and with a touch of red when held up to light. Not much for head. Light beige and it disappears quickly. Smells great and the rich chocolate/ coffee flavor hides the alcohol well. I found it to be more complex at about 60-65 degrees.

Shazzam! Mmmmmmm.... Wow, killer beer. Poured with a fine creamy and reminiscent of angelfood candy. Full. rich, and very balanced aroma and flavor. Even maybe a little too subtle. Extremely drinkable. Fine quality. This could easily be served in a gourmet meal along side a sumptuous seared rib eye steak. The whiskey characteristics show up only in the highlights of the beer which is fine by me. Good beer to serve your significant other and prep em for some lust. heh heh. cheers. Having a draft of this at Bodega Brew Pub downtown La Crosse, Wis. USA

mmmmmm. its good. Nice color and aroma. Slightly sweet, but dry and toasted at the same time. Alot going on but it works very smoothly. can’t taste the whiskey really blends very nicely. Grab some today it’s still out and about. I’ve got my stockpile secured!

Pours a deep brown with some chestnut notes and a smaller bubbly tan head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, nuts, rye, light whiskey, vanilla, oaky and a little earthy with some coffee notes. Flavor was pretty much a match of the aroma all the same goodness going on. These barrel aged Porters in the Brewers Gone Wild! series are top notch.

Bottle, pours an opaque, dark brown body with red hues and a thin brown head. Chocolate milkshake aroma at first blush, but there are also scents of cocoa, coffee, and dark fruit. Thick, smooth, viscous mouthfeel. Flavors of toasted malts, cocoa, and coffee, with hints of whiskey, vanilla, and toffee. Slightly dry and bitter cocoa finish. Whiskey aroma and flavors start to come out a little more as the beer warms.
