    I've never met you, but if I ever run into you and you do not resemble, or at least dress like The Dude, I will be majorly disappointed. Perhaps offended, even.

    Nah, couldn't drink the whole thing by myself...that's just greedy. That is definitely not a review...because Cognac is different the BB Moloko. :grinning:

    Edit: Frank beat me to it.

    Just opened mine and I really like it. Wish I had access to another bottle, maybe I'll go back tomorrow if they're still there. Review is up if you're curious.

    How sweet is it? According to FFF's most recent post, this beer was in a cognac barrel for at least a year. Is the cognac up front?

    On the taste, the congac definitely starts, but without being too sweet. Nice toffee and dark fruit, as I would expect cognac to lend. Finishes with a nice vanilla/chocolate interplay. I was worried about too much cognac and booziness, but no booze for me - nice cognac flavors that really integrated well with the base. Mouthfeel was the best part IMO.

    EDIT: for reference of my assessment of sweetness, BB Angel's Share is too sweet for me when warm, and I couldn't finish my glass of BA Naked Evil due to sweetness. So there ya go.

    She had a dark hair; it could have been brunette. She was definitely short and thin so it's possible we're talking about the same person.

    Now accepting nominees for the "Silky Johnson of the Week" Award. If we're going to have this thread every Tuesday, we may as well have some fun with it.

    Just back from 3 floyds where I opted for the more economica_l and just my size to drink alone rye'da tiger. Nice label but the beer was cold and the label is paperlike and doesn't seem long for the bottle.
