Pours pitch black with minimal head, extremely viscous, legs that go forever. Aroma is pure milk chocolate with a dash of bourbon barrel. Flavor is predominately chocolate, but the bourbon barrel flavor is all rye. Minty rye. So cool. Super thick and viscous, minimal carbonation. This is one of the best straight-up, non-adjunct BBA imperial stouts I have ever had, wish I bought a few more.
