Had on tap. Typical black body for series, maybe a smidge browner, mushroom cap, this one does leave a lot of lacing though. Smell sees the adjuncts works right away: honey sweetens the brew and the sesame seed casually adds to the malt and bourbon depth and contrasts with the cocoa. Taste follows this theme, coffee and earth lead more the normal for BASS, and the honey sweetness does start to add up in the palate with a coconut accent. Feel is lighter but otherwise the same as most in the series, slightly cloying from the honey.
