On tap at Thin Man Brewery in Buffalo, NY.

This one pours a dark black color, with a small head, and not much lacing.

This smells like milk chocolate, nougat, caramel, honey, toasted coconut, oak, vanilla, and bourbon.

This is really pleasant. It kind of tastes like a bourbon dipped coconut nougat truffle, or something like. There's oak and vanilla and just a hint of bourbon, with a pleasant level of coconut - definitely there, but not overwhelmingly so. There's a a big creamy milk chocolate character, that adds a honey/caramel like sweetness as well.

This is medium bodied, with no real booziness, and a very nice drinkability. It's luxuriously creamy and smooth. There's a fairly low level of carbonation, but it's definitely there.

This is really wonderful stuff. The last 3 BA beers I've had from Thin Man were excellent, and I'm excited to see that program continue to develop.
