Trophy Hunt packs a great vanilla/marshmallow punch that nestles above a nice, mildly bitter dark chocolate flavor of the base beer. The barrel presence is not prominent and the overall beer lacks deeper layers of complexity, but this is certainly a solid offering.

Interesting BA stout. A tad hot but clean for what it is. Nice vanilla marshmallow taste somewhat subdued but well integrated with the bakers chocolate. A cool beer nothing special like FOs younger brother

Standout at Denver Rare Beer Tasting 2017 - probably drank my weight in this and HBM w/vanilla - I preferred this by a small margin but this brewery definitely knows how to make a vanilla barrel aged stout. Incredible stuff. Creamy mouthfeel, vanilla on vanilla and a mouthful of cake.
