Bottle, a tequila aged stout. As good as it can get I guess. Sweet, margarita alcohol burn with roast and coffee. There’s a reason they don’t make coffee margaritas.

Tap at brewery: Basically opaque with small beige head. The aroma is mostly the Vlad you know and love but with just a kiss of Tequila vapours and a wee bit of oak. The taste showed the barrel more but is nicely balanced where as the barrel does not override the base flavours. It is a bit "hot" and the mouthfeel does seem to be a bit thinned out by barrel aging. Still I like this and a nice contrast to the fruited APA/IPA/DIPA’s of the day.
