Can from Tavour. Pours clear dark brown with a tan head that didn't last very long. Aroma of bourbon, wood and roasty malt. Approaching full bodied. Not dry at all. Flavor is bourbon, vanilla, darkish toffee and quite noticeable heat. Overall the flavor is good.

Can shared with Lorna & Mark. It pours clear darkest brown with a small khaki head. The aroma is rich and unctuous, oily, leathery, huge aged bourbon character, bourbon soaked oak, dull marmite, raisin, sultana, boozey fruit, DSLR chocolate, heady notes of vanilla and toasted coconut. The taste is slick, oily, thick, heavy sweetness, plenty of dried fruits, raisin, sultana, candied peel, booze soaked fruit cake, huge bourbon character, bourbon soaked oak, vanilla, malt loaf, molasses, boozey warmth, touch of tannin, cola cubes, touch of spice and brown bread with a drying finish. Fulsome body, fine carbonation and slick mouth feel. Rich, hearty and decadent.

12 oz can. Thanks. ClarkVV. Aroma shows toffee, soft bourbon, mild earthy notes. Flavor of fig, English toffee, vanilla, with long lingering bourbon. Super mellow, round character. No booze can be found. Just awesome!

12oz can pours out amber brown color topped with a small head. Nose is amazing sweet toffee caramel brownsugar barrel. Taste is more of the nice sweet malts combo and an amazing barrel kick.

12oz can at share. Dark brown pour with a foamy beige head. Aroma is malty, toffee, prunes, , hint of vanilla. Taste is malty, leathery, sweet, caramel, light chocolate, pit fruit. Smooth and strong. Aroma of malt, chocolate, caramel, vanilla and bourbon. Malty and caramelly flavor with chocolate and raisin leading into a vanilla and bourbon finish. Had side by side with Straight Jacket and this one definitely smelled and tasted more chocolatey and caramelly; more decadent. World class BW.

Burk från Revolution, 2018. Mörk kastanjebrun med fingerhög beige krona som lägger sig. Russin, johannesbröd, katrinplommon, kolaremmar, fruktläder, bränt socker, snäll dos likörpralin och läkerol. Lång eftersmak där fatlagringen står i förgrunden. Blött trä och Bourbon. Kanon.
