Wow. It's hard to believe they can turn regular Dark Lord into this beauty.

It pours thick as sludge, extremely dark.

Smells of fragrant cinnamon. Nuances of bourbon and chocolate from the stout base.

Tastes of smooth cinnamon, not spicy. Finishes with slight bourbon notes. No burn at all. Alcohol presence is perfectly hidden. What sets this apart from most stouts is the thick creamy mouthfeel. Superb beer that goes toe to toe with Handjee.

2017 batch I don't even like cinnamon and this was great. Nice thickness, great body, poured nice and thick. Very rich but not overly sweet and the cinnamon worked so nicely.

2021 Edition, Bottle 1207 of 3000.

This one has been on my list of wants for seemingly forever due to its reputation, and especially since I’m a cinnamon and spicy “anything” lover, and it sure didn’t disappoint.

There isn’t much I can add to what has been posted by others here, but the cinnamon to me is definitely front and center. Not a ton of spice, which is ok; but it’s there. The barrel isn’t in your face either; everything is playing off each other quite nicely.

It may be sacrilege, but I’m enjoying this more than Handjee. Don’t tell anyone…
