Named after my old dog Billy-Bob. Dense layers of malt, caramel, chocolate, and a hint of light-roast coffee give way to reveal a slight hop character you'll be surprised to find if you're used to drinking English brown ale. The finish is complex but balanced, and the gravity is not so high as to keep you from having another.
