4.3/5  rDev -3.8%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
Appearance: Pours the color of dirty motor oil with a thin beige cap that fades to a ringlet; strands a dots of lace

Smell: Roast and Rye Whiskey with undertones of Baker's chocolate, hazelnut and cinnamon

Taste: The Rye makes a forceful entry with considerable roasted dark malts underpinning; Baker's chocolate, hazelnut and cinnamon emerge with just a hint of vanilla; the finish has some fusel alcohol with a significant Rye presence

Mouthfeel: Full bodied with moderate carbonation; warmth in the gullet

Overall: Olde Hickory has always done a great job brewing BA stouts with honey all the way back to the early days when Event Horizon was all the rage; this one adds a few new adjuncts as well as the use of a Rye barrel
