Sometimes even beer is worth cellaring. So dang sweet that the 14%+alcohol is nearly obscured. Impressive, but not really tasty.

This is amazing. Dense flavors of coffee and chocolate, very velvety Amy Currens said shoo fly pie in a glass. So aromatic and malty. Super long finish

Chocolate, coffee, dark with roasted malt and elevated alcohol: 14.9%. Aged in old bourbon barrels. Interesting and intense, delicious but not exactly refreshing. #pbfw

Good but like all of the BCS I've had, the end is hot and alcoholic and the richness falls off
