Imperial Malt Liquor Aged in Bourbon Barrels
Too Classy for a Paper Bag. Here you have what could be the first malt liquor worthy of a glass. Typically a slighted style, we thought we would class it up with a stay in the wood and a healthy dose of dry-hopping. A huge hit of corn gives this one a smooth sweetness while its time spent aging in bourbon barrels will give you reason to share. Be warned: this one will kick you where you most expect it.

Bottle. Amber beer with a cream head. Malt and bourbon aroma. Light vanilla and bourbon flavor with sweet malt and light alcohol. Medium-plus bodied. Bourbon and sweet malt lingers with light alcohol.

Bottle from Bine & Vine. Pours gold with a foamy white head. Aroma of bourbon, wood, fruit and that thing that in tall boys comes across nasty. Not so here. Med + body. Flavor is bourbon, wood, fruits and a toffee/corn thing that is usually repulsive. Not so here. There is noticeable heat, but it's not a problem here. Far from dry. Not very bitter. The heat and bourbon sort of fill in to keep the "malt" under control. This is clearly a cousin to tall boy crap, but it has enough flavor characteristics to make it tasty and enjoyable. Woot!

A darl yellow beer, a head is blond and small, slowly bubbling that's indicating the high alc.%. Aroma has richness of malts, dried fruits with at least apricot and plum, also marmelade notes, some vanilla, wood and bourbon. Taste has maltyness, bourbon and barrel, balanced sweetness, richness of dried fruits. Drying alcohol almost without taste. Slightly warming in the throat. Full bodied, slipppery and smooth. Easy drinkability. Noble booze lager.

12 ounce bottle, but I saw it available in bombers, too. Probably best to slowly sip this but I found it went down quickly for such a big ABV that is right in your face. Nit something I would drink frequently but I'll definitely pick one up occasionally.

On tap at WOB Easton. Clear golden with small white head. Aroma is Malt/booze, thick body, lower carbonation, and some lacing. Taste is big booze, malt, and burning booze finish. Not a fan.

Flaska från SB. Kristallklar bärnstensfärgad med liten vit krona. Mängder av övermogna äpplen, kolaremmar, torkad frukt, corn syrup, brandy, brunt kristalliserat socker och bourbon. Sött, men inte överdrivet. I avslutningen en rejäl skjuts av boozig bourbon. Smakar lite som billig whisky. En fin fulöl, eller tvärtom. Gillar idén, och smakar kul, men kanske inget som tar en mycket längre än så.

Huh. At least I found this fucker in a 12 OZ bottle. Pours crystal clear golden, medium creamy off-white head, dissipates slowly, nice lacing. Aroma is malty, dark sugars, toffee, oak, vanilla. Flavor is quite sweet and light plus bitter. Medium body. Decent.
