Sweet milk chocolate, prominent banana, and a balanced vanilla bourbon barrel nose on this one! Taste follows with some banana pudding with Nilla wafers drizzled in chocolate and an integrated bourbon barrel finish. Wow! One of the best banana stouts I've had! Well done!
Edit: Lucked into a bottle to compare to having this one tap. The bottle was stored on a shelf and not refrigerated. Surprisingly, it has held up well despite not being refrigerated. There is only a slight drop off in the banana and Nilla wafers dept. Outside of that it is still phenomenal. Keeping original rating...
