Bourbon Stout
Had to try this one first at the Chophouse, as it's the one people talk about. It looks great- a deep opaque black with a dense and foamy dark tan head that lasts. Smells like malty bourbon and chocolate. Interesting. Taste is roasty malts at first, then smooth bourbon, and a bit of ethanol on the end. The bourbon flavor becomes more pronounced with warming, but it's never overwhelming, and is balanced by the malty sweetness. Still, it lowers the drinkability... this has more of a "sipability." The mouthfeel is surprisingly thin, yet somehow still smooth and fits the personality of the beer.
