COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Woodsman was brewed in celebration of our 3rd anniversary.

The Woodman pours opaque black with a thick, creamy mouthfeel, Chocolate and coffee dominate the aroma accompanied by hints of Bourbon and oak.

Bottle to glass. Pours a deep brown color with a light tan head. Aroma is a very pleasant light roasted malts, chocolate, bourbon, vanilla. Flavor is sweet, with a touch of roasted malts. Very creamy mouthfeel, with a lingering bourbon, vanilla, light chocolate and roasted malts. Phenomenal BA stout! Best I’ve had from 4 hands so far. Although I do have Madagascar waiting for me, so that may change... thanks JP!

jandd1983 (3261) - Florissant, Missouri, USA - MAR 7, 2015
It poured a black color with a small tan head. The aroma was of roasted malty chocolate and bourbon. The taste was similar to the aroma with more roasted malty chocolate and bourbon with hints of coffee. It had a roasted malty chocolate finish with hints of bourbon and coffee in the aftertaste. Very nice.

EtTuCthulhu (1385) - Columbia, Missouri, USA - FEB 28, 2015
This beer pours a black color with a small tan-colored head, and the aroma blends booze and cocoa nibs with hints of coffee, roasted malts, and oak. The taste is slightly bitter, highly umami, and a touch sweet with a dark chocolate flavor (without the bitterness) throughout the main flavor and aftertaste, the latter of which has more wood flavor than the ritual flavor. The palate fuses a slick texture, medium-full body, and a nearly flat carbonation.

A really great stout. Pours inky black with milk chocolate head. Lots of great stuff going on with this one. Aromas are dark fruit, red berries, and lots of sweet bourbon. Drinks a bit like a sweet sherry. Grape, bourbon, caramel, milk chocolate, tobacco. Aromatic, flavorful, and quite delicious.
