$11.50 a 12 ounce can? I trust Upslope.

It pours a really dark brown with a minimal and short lived head of foam. Not surprising. No lacing.

The smell is huge with the Bourbon, has dark pitted fruits, vanilla, huge caramel malt sweetness, boozy! Hell, it's 17.5%abv!

Lots of Bourbon up front. Caramel malt sweetness is in your face...chocolate attributes to the sweetness. Dark pitted fruits, vanilla, very very sweet overall and a syrupy mouthfeel to it.

Lightly carbonated, the syrupy mouthfeel is a bit much.

A fantastic Old Ale that must have cost Upslope a bit of bucks to cellar before releasing. Worth the expense? In my book, yes.
