On tap at the Beer Junction, pours a dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma is loaded with bourbon barrel character upfront, with some toffee and dark dried fruits. Flavour is dominated by the bourbon barrels, with some booze, dry smoky barrel character, and some dried dark fruits. Nice use of barrels, but lacking the depth one might hope for.

DrAft at loyal legion. Starts out in the zone, murky brown with a nice sugary aroma. Aroma is right there too, sugary sweet. Taste offers a hint of the barrels, some warmth and booziness , possibly filling in for a low ABV on the base. Solid, but lacks the all around fullness of it's Belgian brothers.
