Real excited to try this one.
Ned(brewer/owner) has been doing a good job as of late and I knew it wouldnt dissapoint.
Poured deep and dark, small tan head with lacing left behind.
Smell the bourbon, heavy, mixing with dark roasty and chocolate malts.
Taste is very nice, the bourbon slapps you to reality immediately and is followed by a nice mild roastiness. Note of bakers chocolate and coffee once again finishing slightly "burnt" and nicely bitter.
Very nice indeed.

Pours a great dark black color, very opaque, with nice head and lacing. It has the great burnt grain/coffee taste, with hints of Kentucky bourbon in it. The taste has even more of the bourban, although the stout still comes through just fine; a nice burnt grain/coffee taste, with a heavy bourbon overtone, if anything just a bit too much of the bourban, but great, nonetheless. It goes down extremely smooth, but feels more like a sipping stout, rather than a chuggins stout. An excellent brew, Ned's stout is great aged in bourbon barrels.

Hurry and get it, it is a very limited batch right now.
