Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a large deep brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of roasted malt with some bourbon, vanilla and black chocolate with light and very subtle notes of star anise. Taste is a nice mix of roasted malt with some sweet residual sugar notes, some vanilla and bourbon notes with some super subtle star anise notes. Body is full with somewhat of a creamy texture with good carbonation and light subtle warming alcohol notes. Very well brewed and quite enjoyable but star anise is more subtle then I was expecting.
