4oz. Appearance: dark brown with a tan head. Aroma: dark fruits, some roasted malt. Taste: along the same lines, low carbonation, a bit dusty, Overall: nothing special, couldn't find any evidence of barrel aging, unfortunately (even went to double-check at the bar whether I got anything else by coincidence).

12oz thick strong purple waxed bottle pours with a mahogany colored body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The modest aroma offers up brown sugar nuanced bourbon, wafer thin marshmallow and oak and then a solid helping of booziness. The taste delivers fleeting malty sweetness and a sense of molasses that quickly yield to bourbon and booze. A little better character comes out to midway with a mild vanilla and spicy oak sensation as well as dash of marshmallow drowning in bottomless boozy bourbon. The barrel and beer notes can use more harmony as the barrel treatment nearly kills off all of the beeriness.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a dark copper with small beige head that lasts. The aroma is candy sugar, wood, vanilla, bourbon. Medium body, vanilla, candy sugar, wood, boozy finish, very good.
