Can (10/29/24) from Andover Classic Wines. Lightly hazy dark brown-magenta with nice sparkle, ephemeral fizzy head, nice viscosity, no lacing. Aroma is bourbon, oak, caramel, brown sugar, dark fruit, all well balanced. Taste is strong caramel over bourbon, dark fruit, light oak. Very smooth, thick texture, soft carbonation, mild alcohol warmth, finish as taste but more on the oaky side. Very nice--smooth, well balanced with good complexity.

12 oz can from Half Time, 12/29/24. Muddy, rusty reddish-brown color, tan head. Whiskey, vanilla, brown sugar, molasses, dark fruit / raisin, a little bread, and some caramel / toffee as well. Lots of flavor here, well balanced. Rich and a little boozy, but not overly so. Damn smooth for a 15%er. Quality stuff. 9/4/9/4/18

Walnut furniture brown, a nice thin layer of tan foam. Smell is full of malts, alcohol and some sugar/molasses. Rich taste, makes me think of old book leather. Nicely numbing from the first sips. Invites some nice, slow, contemplative sipping. Watching nice rings of foam being left in the glass.

On tap at Revolution - Kedzie, pours a deep dark mahogany / dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma reveals plenty of bourbon, dark dried fruits, and brown sugar. Flavour is quite syrupy, with lots of dark dried fruits, intense bourbon, toffee, and brown sugar. A bit too syrupy and sweet for me, but there�s a real nice barrel character. Rich and complex but a bit too brutal and sweet. Good.
