Draft - Bourbon, dark malts and toffee. Deep dark brown with a small light brown head. Boozy notes, light sweetness and some light sour notes. Interesting.

At Matt’s place. Slight sour and barrels notes in the non-intensive aroma. Beer covers mouth like liquor, barrel, bourbon and some desert wine notes in the taste. Pleasant one.

Tasting at Matt’s
Dark brown color, medium head. Very mild aroma, some roasted malts. Strong body, but also quite boozy; dark caramel flavor, but without depth, moderately sweet, and it has a touch of liquorice in the end.
Not a bad beer, a bit arrogant, and chaotic.

375mL bottle, pours a deep dark reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out a nice mix of bourbon barrels, bready malt and dark dried fruits. Flavour is quite woody and bourbon heavy, with loads of the barrel coming through, followed by caramel and dark dried fruits. Quite dry, with low residual sweetness. Harmonious and well-balanced. Excellent.

Nitro at the brewpub. Pours a hazy very dark brown with a yellowish brown head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has a good amount of bourbon and sweet grains with a decent amount of caramel and toffee. Flavor is boozy with bourbon and has grain and a sharp bourbon underlying.
