bottle from the brewery. black pour, small beige head. Aroma is all barrel, with some vanilla, and some lettuce like vegetable aroma. as it warms, the vanilla, and barrel just dominate, and the base beer is completely lost. I’m having a hard time getting much roast, or coffee from the base beer, and the cranberry for sure is gone. I’m thinking the base beer wasnt beefy enough for the barrel ageing. The finish is quite boozy, with some touches of light roast, and more vanilla, barrel. this isnt a bad beer, but it is a barrel bomb.

Bottle from the brewery. Pitch black with only a hint of khaki head around the edge. Bourbon is prominent in the nose with vanilla, wood, dark chocolate and just a hint of the cranberry. Flavour is light sweet malt with bitter coffee and chocolate and some light tartness from the cranberry. Alcohol not quite hidden. Medium creamy mouth with very soft carbonation. Lots going on here.

Bottle - boozy bourbon, vanilla and chocolate. Jet black with no head. Bourbon notes, light cranberry and roasted malts. Too much bourbon and fruit, tastes likes the bad Christmas boozy fruit chocolates.
