It's packed with coconut, cacao nibs, and a *serious* amount of marshmallow (as opposed to a "whimsical" amount of marshmallow, which we find stupid and dumb and lame and stupid). HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

L: Motor oil pour from a 12oz bottle into a sniffer - no lacing at all on this one.
S: As soon as I poured this I smelt the rum/ coconut aroma. Getting more hints of marshmallow slight cocoa nibs. Getting some dark fruit in there as well.
T: Wow just wow, you cannot taste the abv at all in this! Definitely getting that rum barrel up front followed by tastes of chocolate, coconut and marshmallow in this on the first sip. The cocoa comes near the end for me and makes this a very interesting beer.
F: Thick, smooth, easy to sip. Medium carbonation which works so well with the complexity of this beer.
O: Gotta say, I loved 'Bomb' but man this might take that number one spot for me. Very tough decision because both are made in different ways but this is also my first time trying a rum barrel aged stout. Very unique, I'd give it a 98/100. Definitely worth a try.

Marshmallows in this are really nice, second best application I’ve had after toppling Goliath yet oil fluffernutter.

Prairie Weekend Imperial Stout, 13.3% ABV. Pours black with the typical Prairie ring of bubbles. Nose is heavy marshmallow, plus coconut and chocolate. Taste follows with marshmallow hitting heavy right up front, followed by coconut, chocolate, and roast malt. Quite sweet, just short of cloying. Marshmallow aftertaste. Excellent mouthfeel, overall world-class. Should have bought more than two.

Poured a black body with minimal head and no lace. The aroma is fluffy, sweet, chocolate and I guess marshmallow and coconut but really I get chocolate and more chocolate. Thick, chocolate, fluffy (I guess that's the marshmallow) with some smooth woodiness, possible coconut adds to slickness at times, overall some sweet goodness with just a touch of booze on the end. Really sweet beer that hit the sweet tooth that is worth having.

Black, foam's immediately gone.
Can't place the smell, it's not any of the adjuncts. Cake, powdered sugar.
Milk chocolate and coconut, later has the lightest note if sun block. Vanilla is a great compliment.
Plenty dense.
