Lots of chocolate. Cherry is subtle. On the thin side, but good flavor.

Not loving this, still...

Not bad, not great

I was hoping for something along the lines of the 2014 Prop with coconut. Sadly this isn’t really like that at all. I do taste coconut-like flavors, but not as pleasantly, and very subtle. The base is a very bold BA stout & sweet. Good, but wouldn’t buy.

Still really great. Lots of rich, dark chocolate with a hint of booziness and sweetness.

Super smooth, complex, boozy, chocolatey, and delicious. Left it a bit warmer than usual and that allows the flavors I love to shine right away.

Vertical 2020

Very dark, lots of dark chocolate and sweetness. I think this one was best fresh.

8 year vertical

Mmmm. Welcome back my old friend. This is the BC I fell in love with but haven’t had since 2014. Dark, malty, bourbony booziness. Yum

Can definitely taste the age on it. Getting chocolate, coffee and cinnamon notes. Dark chocolate lingers long afterwards.

This has lost a lot of its original character in 4 years. A bit of coffee, malt and a subtle cinnamon finish. Will have to try a 2018 for comparison.

Yum

Getting way more pumpkin in this than when it was fresh, which is crazy. Definitely showing it’s age, but not in a bad way.

Very boozy. Lots of sediment firmly suspended. Sweeter than I remember.

Stood up very well after 3 years.

Smelled similar to Bourbon County, but flavor is very different. Tastes a little like a Bourbon County mixed with a Barleywine. Slight sharpness or bitterness. Very unique.

Very strong dark chocolate with a little too much bitterness. Coffee takes a back seat to the chocolate, but likely adds some bitterness of its own. Regardless, it’s really good.

This tastes a bit more bitter than I remember. Perhaps this wasn’t stored properly. Just bought it but is a year old.

Smells so good. Lots of bourbon and coffee on the nose. The only downside for me is the bitterness, which gets stronger on the aftertaste.

Lots of dark chocolate and malt with a bit of sweetness. On the thinner side and not terribly complex. Good, but not one of my favorites from them.

Really good. Lots of coffee at the front, followed by tons of dark chocolate. No loss of flavor after 1 year.

Loads of dark chocolate with a hint of coffee. Finish is roasted malt and lingering dark chocolate. Held up well.

Really good until the very end when bitterness sets in and becomes the only thing lingering on the palette.

I’ve had similar tasting beers. I couldn’t drink more than one at a time, but it’s pretty good. I get the peanut, but not the strawberry.

Overwhelming earl gray tea flavor; not much else. Flavor doesn’t change much as it warms. Good, but in small doses.

Held up well. Wish I could find more of these.

Held up well. Plenty of coffee and barrel, though seems like very little carbonation.

Really roasty and whiskey is well pronounced. Dark chocolate flavors also present.
