Vanilla, oak and the leather and spice notes of cognac are prominent up front. The bourbon gives this a subtle sweetness, followed by mild chocolate and roasted grain flavors. Finishes dry. The complexity of this beer earns it an extra quarter star.

Dark and rich, coffee and vanilla linger. The cognac barrel is very prominent. Kinda wish it was bourbon barrel only

Drier and maybe a little less roasty than the ‘19 release. I’m a fan.

Delicious double barrel aged stout! Smooth and roasty with notes of coffee and dark bitter chocolate. Both the bourbon and cognac show up nicely and tie everything together nicely.

Well balanced. Dark and roasty and the aging complements it well without overpowering.

Heavy chocolate and coffee. Coffee with a dose of dark chocolate come through strong on the finish. After she warms the cognac and bourbon barrels really shine. Wow, 12.4% monster. A lot of depth to discover and she is smooth as a Mothership. Cheers
