Pours a really dark brown to black (probably just black) color, some off-white head, good retention, weak lacing. The aroma was bubblegum, dark fruits, roasted malts, coffee. The flavor followed the aroma, yet the hops were suprisingly present, firm showing, only light notes of wooden barrels, not so much the bourbon. Mouthfeel was full, not sticky
Poured a dark dark brown with good head. Aroma was of dark fruits coffee some malts in there. Flavor was first sip had a ton of bourbon but after that i lost that flavor and was more of a hoppy flavor to it. Good beer.
