A beautiful base stout made very smooth by barrel aging in barrels that held perhaps the most complex beer/liqueur in the world. What could go wrong? Nothing, really.

I share this coat rod bracket's sentiments about this beer.

Very unique. Not the traditional BBA stout, but really good. Really picked up the profile of Utopia’s.

This is a BIG freakin’ barrel aged stout. Totally get the dried fruit/raisen and the port-esque flavors of the barrel. Alcohol hits your mouth hard.

Hides the alcohol pretty well. I am amazed at how thin this is, it's more brown than black and not viscous in the least.

Couldn't get the Utopias, so I got the next best. At 17.2%, this is deceptively smooth. Definitely let it warm some, the flavor comes through so much better. Happy I picked up case to let some age.

Excellent as it warms. Strong nose, smooth and light velvet intake then a the bourbon hits on the transition like a small shot and it warms as it hits the back of the palette. Dogfish did well with this line.

When there is one beer in the fridge after a long stressful day this is the one to have. Good God!

Never had a smoooooother 17% beer. Sweeter (more Utopias flavor) when cold, then mellows even more as it warms. Top shelf all the way.

Baby steps man.....baby steps....chilly night calls for a warmer. Gonna sleep well tonight. Malty, molasses, very warming finish, caramel, fig, raisin. Man that's tasty! Thanks Jerry J.

Coffee, booze, unique, dry backend, figs, toffee. Complex, robust. Very interesting. Not super thick, but very intense.

Super intense out of the bottle but settled into some rich notes afterwards. As always with wws, dangerously so.

I will probably never have the real thing, but this is a 5 in my book. SIP and enjoy.

Boozy but kinda thin. I expected it to pour like motor oil. Smooth though

FLN. If you can't have Utopias, then have an excellent beer brewed in a Utopias barrel. Go out and buy one. Now.
