While I still have lots of check ins to make and "tick" I figured I'd save one of the best for my 10,000 check in. This one can be no better for what it is. Deep black; dark brown thick head; wonderful chocolate, roasted grain rich nose; flavors that go on forever and a great finish. A worthy check in I figured for #10,000

Side by side with Buffalo Trace batch 1 and Apple Brandy.
My favorite variant of the set. Elegant bourbon flavors dominate, wood, vanilla, cocoa. Very complex with the pappy barrel shining.
Full bodied, smooth, not overwhelmingly sticky.
Alcohol is more present than in the BT variant but on a reasonable level.
Awesome beer.
Thanks to Anton and Michaelis for sharing.

Black, low carbonation, whispy mocha swirl that dissapates in seconds. The nose hits as the wax is broken and the cap is pryed. Chocolate, raisin, marshmallow, wood, its quite magnificent. I should be in a robe in a leather chair drinking this from a pipe.
There is no gimmick with this beer, no trendy flavors. Its a barrel aged stout to perfection. Smooth, creamy, sticky, boozy nearly 4 years later but rounded and soft. The beer bursts with flavor, fudge is the most predominant. A beautiful beer.

This is amazing! Its jam-packed with flavors of liquid fudge batter, fresh brownies, cocoa butter, some vanilla, wood, a touch of some non-descript spiciness, chocolate covered caramel candies, . Still some moderate heat after all this time. Mouthfeel is nice. One of the best noses ever on a beer. This is seriously amazing.
