Fire from the Mountain is a big barrel aged stout that deserves to be compared to the well known examples of the style. The appearance is typical for the style: dark, with a light head, and some lacing. The smell is powerful - rye whiskey, coffee, and some maple. The taste is similar. The maple is prominent, almost like maple syrup, but this beer is definitely not sweet, at least not much. The mouthfeel is smooth, but the 14.1 ABV is noticeable.
I've had a lot of barrel aged stouts. I'd put this in the upper tier. It's particularly notable for the distinctive rye and maple flavors, along with coffee. This will probably be a hard beer to find, but if you are in Colorado, or the Telluride distribution footprint, I'd urge you to give it a try.
