TimE (8459) - Tokyo, JAPAN - OCT 19, 2019UPDATED: OCT 19, 2019 Pitch black color. Excellent charred wood, vanilla, dark chocolate, nutty, molasses and coffee notes in the nose. Wow. Low carbonation really nice charred wood and bourbon character. But mouthfeel is not as great as expected. Modestly boozy. I meant it’s good, but it’s just not mindblowing on the palate. Slightly sweet.

Ljus (872) - Quebec, CANADA - AUG 19, 2018Apparence : Noire, peu ou pas de col brun ne laissant qu'un anneau, faible carbonatation.
Nez : Chocolat noir, fut, malt grillé, café, bien intégré.
Goût : Beaucoup de chocolat noir (légèrement vanillé), malt grillé, touche caramélisée, de café, fut de bourbon, légèrement épicé par les chilis en finale.
Sensation : Effervescence faible, bon corps, chaleur d'alcool présente dans une longue finale avec une touche épicée et grillée.
Bref : Excellente! Très bel exemple d'intégration où tous les éléments sont perceptibles : base maltée, cacao, vanille, café, chilis, fut de bourbon; sans pour autant qu'aucun ne vienne voler la vedette aux autres. On n'est pas dans le terrain des grosses bières desserts surfaites, et c'est apprécié.
Mr.Spooks (4080) - Tennessee, USA - AUG 19, 2018Barrel-aged beauty, a thick, cuddly, warm loaf of decadent stout goodness. All your favorite Bomb! goodies, mixed in with a hefty bourbon finish and a woodsy oak flourish in the finish. Boozy heat adds depth to the pepper spice, and the bourbon melds nicely with the vanilla and cacao. Spent too much time drinking the deconstructed Bombs; nice to get back to the real thing.
