Poured with a huge, fluffy, frothy head that settled after a bit. Aroma’s dark malt, cocoa, barest hint of smoke. Flavor’s where the whiskey really comes thru and in a nice way. Smoke’s only there in the barest way, not sure I’d even notice it if I hadn’t been told by the label. Great palate. Very nice finish.

Location: Bomber from Bruisin' Ales, 1/20/15

Aroma: The aroma has some whiskey, wood, dark/roasted malts, peat, and light smoke
Appearance: An opaque dark brown color with a thick, frothy brown head and mid-heavy lace
Flavor: The flavor is fairly complex. A good amount of dark malt sweetness and roast comes in following a smooth vanilla/boozy sweetness, leading into a lightly bitter, peat and roast finish
Palate: The body is medium (lighter for the style), extremely smooth, creamy, with a soft feel
Overall Impression: I am always surprised when I'm the very first rater of a bottled beer from a state I'm not from, but I'm happy to add rating #1 here. This is a pretty tasty beer. The mix of roasted and sweet malts flavors works really well. The subtle smoke add a nice component too. I liked this.
