Brew 3000

Poured from a 22 oz bottle. Aroma is Rich and full of tons of toffee, caramel, toasted bread and burnt sugar. Lots of plum, prune and rain notes. Light bourbon and oak with a bit of alcohol spice. Pours brown with a small, thin, tan head that recedes somewhat quickly and disappears. No lacing and medium sized legs. Flavor is rather sweet with lots of malt character and a medium light bitterness. Medium light alcohol spice with light bourbon and oak notes. Lots of toffee, caramel, burnt sugar and toasted breads with hints of chocolate. Quite a bit of fruity prune, plum, and raisin notes with lighter date and cherry. Mouthfeel is full bodied with low carbonation. Low astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, a great, fun beer. Lots of malt and balanced fruit notes. Light barrel character adds some complexity. I wish the bottle had a bit more carbonation and I'm not sure how this will age with all the dark fruit already present.

From backlog. Taster from bottle at bottleshare, Escondido, Ca. Brown white beige head. Malts, caramel, sweetness, smooth.

Taster at Spuyten Duyvil during Zwanze. Black color, small coffee colored head. Smells earthy, spices, cinnamon, bit buttery, doughy, sponge cake. Very nice smell. Full body, light carbonation. Tastes of wood, marzipan, dried fruits, some sherry, some sweetness. Finishes lightly sweet with notes of marzipan, dried fruits and sherry nuts. Very nice one, rather on the heavy side 8,4,7,3,16

Very full Body, big bourbon, oak, vanilla, brown sugar, tons of raisins, intense. Very malty. Sweet, but not full body. Nice warming finish. Super

Thanks Justin for sharing! Taster showing amber brown with barely any white foam. The nose shows a light bourbon background with a lightly forward notes of raisin and port wine. The palate is full bodied and sticky with very light carbonation. Moderately sweet with forward flavors of raisin, port wine, toffee, and caramel with light bourbon, smoke, and wood notes in the back ground. No alcohol burn whatsoever. Very smooth and surprisingly well done.
