Barrel Aged Prairie Bomb! with Chistmas Spices
Next, we decided to take our famous seasonal Christmas Bomb! and age it in whiskey barrels because nothing says Christmas like cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate, Spaceship Earth coffee, ancho chiles, and WHISKEY.
My kids leave this beer out for Santa every year, and SANTA IS VERY PLEASED ABOUT IT.

2024 bottle from Livonia Liquor. Pours a deep brown to black with almost no head. Big Christmas spice nose (think clove, ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon) with warming whiskey on the nose as it warms. Palate is similar with dark chocolate, coffee and chili peppers as it warms. Warming whiskey throughout. Great stuff!

12oz bottle. Pours black with small tan head. Aroma is very rich; chocolate, chilies, cinnamon, vanilla, coffee. Flavour has intense whiskey barrels, chilies, cinnamon, and chocolate; a bit boozy on the finish. Mouthfeel is nice and smooth with gentle carbonation. This is really nice, contains sweet and boozy character without being dominated by either.

Sample at Churchkey is a translucent deep brown with some spitty beige head, legs. Nose is huge cinnamon and nutmeg and ginger, malt and cocoa and brown sugar. Flavor has all the spice, huge ginger and clove and cinnamon and all spice. All of them. Full bodied, spicy finish. Barrel plays so nicely. Well done. 8 3 9 4 15

Bottle from Tavour. Pours very dark brown with a slight tan/brown head. Aroma of cinnamon and chiles. Arguably full bodied. Flavor of cinnamon, chiles, chocolate, heat/whiskey, smooth burnt malt, and a touch of what could be coffee. Not exactly dry nor exactly sweet. A burning in the gullet sensation and hot spice lingers in the finish. It does suggest a Xmas dessert.

On tap at Prairie OKC, pours jet black with a tiny brown head. Aroma is intense, with loads of coffee, bourbon, chiles and cinnamon in beautiful harmony. Flavour is complex and wonderfully balanced, revealing a wonderful harmony of cinnamon, chocolate, chiles, coffee and whiskey barrels. The sweetness is moderate at best and is held in check wonderfully. This is fantastic.

Bottled 11.04.2019. Black, thick, oily, small tan head. Big smell of ginger, some speculaas spices. Smooth, rich, boozy body. Taste is way less ginger than smell, good. Sweet, with christmassy spices (ginger, cinnamon maybe) and coconutty bourbon. Lovely.
