3-year barrel-aged imperial stout with pistachio and vanilla. That sweet, nutty pistachio taste swirled with vanilla and barrels. We could write you a haiku on this awesome combo, but we'll spare you.

A - Pours a thick motor oil black with no head.

S - Aroma is dark chocolate, vanilla and huge borubon barrel.

T - The taste is dark chocolate, vanilla, pistachio, caramel and a good punch of bourbon barrel in the finish.

M - Full body with low carbonation. Chewy mouthfeel with a slick oily finish.

O - Solid adjunct BBA stout. The adjuncts are on the mild side letting the base shine.

Midnight black stout pour, light brown cap and spotted lacing. Nose has huge pistachio and barrel. Taste starts the same but then huge vanilla, fudge, and faint cola round out. Still thick but not heavy, nutty less than barrel forward. Fun use of pistachio, vanilla was a surprisingly good pairing

Look - black thick syrup
Smell - booze barrel with some pistachio
Taste - booze barrel and pistachio like the smell but it also has a sweet caramel
Feel - thick with more carb than expected but still creamy
Overall - not bad but could be better
