Bourbon County Brand Stout Vintage 2013 opened and drank on 8/31/17 (14.2%) into a tulip

Dark brown almost black appearance with little to no head

Bourbon and oaky wood-like smell with notes of sweetness assuming chocolate

Taste is sticky sweet with notes of tobacco and coffee and you can definitely taste this beer was aged bc of its overall oaky flavor

Little to no carbonation, thick and full-bodied with out being overly boozy...The 14.2% is completely masked as this is extremely drinkable

Overall and awesome stout, probably the best I have ever had the pleasure of drinking and I cannot wait until this bottle is available in my area as I will try to get as much of it to drink as possible. Ages very well too.

Pours a thick black with minimal head that leaves a thin ring around the edge. 
Smells of bourbon barrel and oak, typical smelling BA stout to me.
Taste is similar, bourbon, oak, and roasted malt. Alcohol tingles briefly on the end.
Full bodied, thick, syrupy stout which I enjoy. I can see why this is considered a benchmark by which other BA stouts are measured, forget the line at Best Buy, I'll be in line waiting on my local bottle shop to open Black Friday!
