The Dark Wanderer is a Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Chocolate Stout. The aroma is rife with chocolate, coffee, bourbon, and light vanilla. Flavor is a balance of rich, sweet malt and brooding dark chocolate -- the bourbon character is firm and pleasant.

Fleeting tan film over ruby black. 4
Intense Death-by-Chocolate nose. 4.75
Fig, velvety ganache, slight dried cranberry, brown sugar, oaky vanilla, and roast to clean up. 4.25
Full, velvety, no heat. 4.25
The most chocolaty beer ever, and - from Wells to Southern Tier - that’s saying something. Lots of sweet things, held in magical check and balance. No burn either. Stands shoulder to shoulder with BCS Vanilla in wanting to lick the residue from the bottle.
Epic. 4.5
