L-Thick, black and oily. Slightest bit of foam around the edge. No lacing.
S-Barrel char, anise, booze, vanilla, molasses, burnt brown sugar
T-Dark bitter chocolate, Bourbon booze, roasty barrel char, dark bitter coffee, some underlying caramel sweetness. Molasses, vanilla, anise, cinnamon
F- Thick and syrupy. No Carb. Some boozy heat in the throat.
O-On par with the BBA from OH. Some lingering sweetness that I prefer not to be there but still very good. Improves as it warms.
