Pours at an average viscosity for a barrel-aged stout of this gravity, with a fairly thin layer of head that dissipates quickly. Marshmallow, vanilla, very expressive rye spice, milk chocolate that's not even there, and wisps of coconut on the nose. I can believe that graham cracker and coconut were explicitly added, but I might not have picked up on that if it wasn't on the label. The mouthfeel is moderately full, thinner than what's currently fashionable for aged pastry stouts.

I could just as easily have been convinced that this was a rye barrel-aged stout without adjuncts (or perhaps an oatmeal stout) that was simply very well executed. As is, it's still very well executed. Quite flavorful, clear and positive whiskey and barrel characters, and not even really verging far into dessert territory.
