look: 4.75 | smell: 4.75 | taste: 4.75 | feel: 5 | overall: 4.75
look: pitch black, hazy, dense mocha head and actively carbonating

smell: damn 99% dark chocolate!!

taste: same as smell, pure dark chocolate fiest, and it's complex, a few more sips and you can taste coffee, cacao, bourbon, vanilla, fig, burnt bread,

feel: full body, dense and smooth like soup, it's amazingly balanced between sweet and bitter and boozy.

overall: this is a world class, cheers!!!

12oz can, poured into a Bell's tulip glass.

A - Pours almost jet black with a thin tan head that fades to a ring around the glass. Light does not pass through the beer.

S - Strong coffee, chocolate, and roasty notes dominate the nose with a slight booziness from the 15.3% ABV.

T - Notes of coffee, dark chocolate, and stone fruit blend together nicely and are not overwhelming.

M - Soft and smooth, yet not as heavy on the palate as expected given the ABV. Dangerously easy to drink.

O - This may be Full Grown Man from Hell, but if you take it slow it'll treat you well. A marvelous big stout.

Pours deep black like burnt oil. Could not make it create a head, which is surprising! Nose is straight bourbon. Taste is also straight bourbon, yet without the burn a bourbon would give you. Soft on the back of the palate. Does not drink like 16%
