3.9/5  rDev -6.3%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Purchased in AZ.

A - Pours black with a dark beige head. held up to the light lots of brown on the edges. Bubbles form a thin layer on top, not much stick on the glass.

S - A nice roasted malt nose, some dark fruit and brown sugar and alcohol

T - More roast though not a coffee roast. Some nice oak character, hint of vanilla and dryness mostly. Slight bitterness in the back. A bit of alcohol heat in the back as well.

M - I wouldn't call this 'viscous' as I've had many that were 'thicker' but it is full bodied and slightly chewy

O - A nice beer with a great taste, actually very different from other stouts I've had. I enjoy the roast as it's not your typical coffee roast. The alcohol is actually getting hotter which is odd. Not bad, I had big hopes for this as I loved Older Viscosity.

4.24/5  rDev +1.9%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25

Pours deep brown, nearly black with a full tan foam head. Nice clingy lace. So dark light won't shine thru.

Dark coffee, cherry wood, alcohol, ark roasted malt in the nose.

Rich dark malt, with a strong chemical alcohol bite, leading to a long deep bitter finish. Big and boozy, you sense that there are some sweet malty sugars back there somewhere, but they get bullied out of the way by alcohol and hops. Rich and deep, but not alot of layers of flavor. Not a true one trick pony, but essentially charred malt, booze, hops, repeat (after each sip).

Fuller bodied with an alcohol burn and a little carbonated tingle.

Great brew. This beer is what it set out to be. Good serving size too. A bomber would wreck you. I'd like to lay a bottle or two down to see what his is like when it has mellowed a bit.
