12 ounce bottle into snifter. Pours opaque black color with a 1 finger dense tan head with great retention. Reduces to a thin lacing cap that lasts for the rest of the glass. Aromas of strong bourbon, oak, dark chocolate, vanilla, and roasted malt. Taste of dark chocolate, caramel, oak, bourbon, and roasted malt with a touch of coffee. Tons of roasted flavor with bourbon on the front that leads to a decent amount of bitterness on the finish that lingers for a bit with chocolate and roasted flavors. Very smooth mouthfeel with medium carbonation and medium-full body. No alcohol noticed on the taste, but a slight warming on the finish. Overall, a very enjoyable Imperial Stout, great in all aspects.

This was all around great stuff for an oak ages Imperial Stout. Smooth and tasty, I would have it again.
