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!
This is insanely good. Oh my. Thanks Clark.

Pours a mesmerizing deep ruby red. Big barrel. Boozy, chocolate, raisins. An absolute delight. Went great with meal prep, and more laundry. Thanks Chris!

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.

Filled Jun/29/2021. Pretty dark brown, frothy unstable light tan head. Big malty smell, raisins, dried apple, caramel, plenty of bourbon. Bit sticky body, decent carbonation, warming. Taste is rich and complex; raisins, oak, caramel, soft bourbon. Delish.
