Had on tap. Inky black, no head. So much lush chocolate in the nose, with vanilla and bourbon to play with, a chocolate lover's decadent dream. So to access the taste better, let's first hit the feel: thick, sweet with slight cloying, decent booziness, very sticky, and syrupy. This feel is a bit overwhelming which when paired with the chocolate explosion in the taste, it is a bit much, so sip it and hope the sweetness doesn't overpower. Warmth with the barrel helped out. Still, if looking for a chocolate bomb this is for you!
