UPDATED: SEP 4, 2019 Definitely past it's prime but still good carbonation. Lots of brown sugar, light cardboard hops and sugar sweetness. It's barely hanging on but it is still drinkable.

UPDATED: MAR 8, 2019 Won't take under, roll like thunder! The aroma is figs/raisins. Pours a very dark brown with dark tan head fully diminishing. The taste is excellent. Haha figure that one out! The body is full, the texture creamy and the finish long. Very Good!!!!!!! HAHA Damn Good!!!

Kenny's Deep Cellar Bottle consumed at L42. It pours opaque brown - black with a bubbly tan head. The aroma is rich, oily, sweet, dried fruits, vanilla, chewy maltage, heavy sweet molasses vibes and cocoa. The taste is slick, oily, fruity vibes, boosty warming alcohol, toasted coconut, leather, spice, rocky road, molasses and earthy roast. Finish is heavy and has some spice on it. Full body and fine carbonation. Oily mouth - feel. Pretty intense still. Not bad.
