This is a Bourbon barrel aged double Imperial Stout. Served on tap into a 10 oz snifter.
Looks: Very thin tan head with little lacing that disipates quickly. Deep brown almost black color.
Nose - Booze - dried fruit.
Mouthfeel - medium - not as heavy as some Imperial stouts in this class - I found this unusually refreshing.
Taste: Delicious! Almost no alchohol burn that I expected from a 12.5 ABV beer. Semi-sweet, with Dark Chocolate and black licorice notes. Very well done - I will go back for more as this is world class beer from this great local brewer.
