On tap at the Rookery on 02/14/20. Lots of chocolate and hazelnut. Like a boozy candy bar. Thick and tasty.

Had on tap. Wow this is a really well made beer, the body is full but not overbearing, creamy yet not too light, and has great oak barrel influences without souring. The smell is also excellent with big oak, coffee and hazelnut notes swirling around the malt and chocolate base. Booze is is omnipresent in taste, and the french oak barrel was a little odd at first, but the more I sip the more I enjoy. Top shelf stuff

Tasted at Fobab 2018. This was killer to me and took best of show in My opinion. The creamy mouthfeel along with an unbelievable smell took it over the top for me.
