Pours a pitch black color with a thin foamy head that quickly dissipates. Lacing is mild. Strong chocolate aroma with roasted malts. The roastiness is a little stronger on the taste with sweet chocolate and a mild peppery taste at the end. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.

22oz bottle poured into a snifter
A- pours a deep brown color with a one-finger creamy khaki head that has good retention
S- heavy bourbon barrel on the nose with undertones of chocolate, roasted malt, cocoa & a hint of vanilla
T- sweet cocoa and chocolate malt up front, with some tootsie-roll notes. Mid-palate brings out some barrel notes of woody oak and bourbon, as well as sweet caramel. The finish gives more chocolate, bourbon and caramel
M- medium body with moderate-low carbonation leads to a foamy mouthfeel that continues into the finish
O- nice chocolate notes that compliment the barrel aging
