3 oz bottle pour at ChurchKey shared by solidfunk, thanks Josh! Clear golden brown with no noticeable head. Aromas of caramel, dark fruit, light soy sauce. Tastes of caramel, toffee, vanilla. Medium body with a dry finish. Barrel character isn’t noticeable to me, probably faded from age.

Bouteille 500ml. De couleur cuivrée foncée etr voilée. Nez boisé (fût de chêne), de vanille, d’alcool liquoreux sucré (brandy), de caramel sucré, léger de sirop d’érable et de fruits (raisins légèrement vineux et cerises sucrées) avec des notes de chocolat au lait et des traces fumées. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture légèrement crémeuse et liquoreuse. Léger goût fruité (raisins aux traces vineuses, notes de cerises, faibles traces de prunes vertes) accompagné d’un goût de vanille et d’un faible goût de malt fumé (traces de tabac) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de malt rôti doux avec un goût de caramel, des notes de pain et de petites traces de chocolat. Parallèlement, l’on retrouve un goput boisé (fût de chêne) avec léger goût d’alcool liquoreux (brandy) et des notes de houblon herbeux jusqu’en finale. Post-goût long-moyen et un peu sec, moyennement amer d’alcool doux, de rôti doux, boisé (fût de chêne) et avec des notes fruitées (moût de raisins).

jack Daniels is apparent carbonation makes it hard to pick out other flavors, tinges of wood and some peat make it through

Bottle: Poured a deep copper color ale with a large foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma consists of light wood notes with some sweet malt notes and some light warming alcohol ester. Taste is more subtle mix then anticipated with light notes of wood, caramelized malt and some alcohol. Body is about average with good carbonation and some apparent alcohol. I was expecting a bit more character with more malt coming through then the final results achived.
