Appearance: Arrives pitch black with a collar; leggy with a few speckles
Smell: Chocolate fudge and Bourbon with a hint of sea salt; the vanilla joins the aroma as it warms
Taste: Chocolate fudge and Bourbon forward; the vanilla is distinct and the sea salt arrrives, in the back; the Bourbon and sea salt are pronounced in the finish
Mouthfeel: Thick bodied with low carbonation
Overall: This is a little different from your typical BBA stout - not sure whether it is the McKenna (which I don't think I have seen before) or the sea salt
