Bottle, 12C. Amber with an off white head that’s soon a near coat. Some floaties, some sediment in the bottle. A whiff of Bourbon, but it moderates to reveal an aroma of bread, plums, butterscotch, spices - there’s an intriguing and unusual woody spice note that I can’t pick but like (possibly simply because it adds character). Lush, somewhat syrupy, lowish carbonation. Sweet butterscotch and bread, some Bourbon notes but happily they are accents (apart from vanilla and oak I guess, but even they aren’t anything like overbearing). Moderate bitterness, but it’s enough that the sweetness gets cleaned up. There’s a bit of warmth there too and it fits fine.
