Member Notes: 

Aroma is delightful, fresh of sweet, hefty malts with a twist of sweet bourbon and strong coffee. Somewhat thin mouthfeel but still thick enough to support the bourbon and malt flavors. Very enjoyable... you get the enjoyment of a bourbon beer but you're not committed to a beer with high gravity. I was acraid this would be subpar from reviews I had read, but its actually pretty good. 7 4 7 4 13-14* B - noss


Club & Brewer Notes: 

Barrels that once contained world-famous Kentucky Bourbon lend a sweet hint of caramel and vanilla to dark-roasted malts and finish with the essence of a lightly roasted coffee. The barrel-aged flavors native to Kentucky compliment this complex stout brewed and aged with Haitian coffee to create the bourbon country’s own Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Stout.
