Brownish black body with a faint light brown ring. Nose is expressive with the bourbon and molasses, good vanilla, oak, chocolate and raisin, but very short lived. Taste is another story, cigar ash tray meets bourbon booze and the only saving grace of vanilla (not enough to do so), even chocolate is very bitter and metallic, something went wrong in the malt work for sure. Feel is hot and watery, a rare feat, super ashy and generally offensive. Hopefully the last drain pour of 2020
