2019 release
Umami smell, almost shoyu. Sharp molasses and cereal flavor. Pecan presence is nice but you have to search for it. Finishes relatively cleanly which is nice considering how thick it seems.
2018 release
As is usual with this beer, it was a bit much. Bit of caramel-soy and thick-sweet. What makes this beer solid though is its smooth, nutty, toffee finish.
2016 release
Standard sweetish stout scent .
Strong, sweet, barrel aged, with the cherry character you'd expect. But actually, this is pretty good .

2016 release
Much better than previous years - smooth, sweet finish, mellow with hints of coconut and butterscotch. Almost perfectly balanced, and not over-roasted or over-woody at all.
2015 release
Good barrel aged stout. Roasted, caramel, oak, molasses flavors. Has some kind a of weird bitter funkiness to it
3.0 release
Pecan pie and bourbon, but all the flavors are... well, pointy. Certainly I've had beers with these flavors that are more integrated, smooth, and enjoyable in their complexity. I've liked those beers much better than this one. Odd that I said similar things about the 1.0 release but rated it much higher - I guess it's not them, it's me.

Pours thick black, a nice hit of pecan to start. Huge alcohol taste, and then bam! Rye! Wheat! Hops! Bourbon! Wood! This beer punches you in the gut rather than warming you up slowly. It's not close to well-balanced, but it's remarkable for sure.
