2009 version: 9%
100% aged in fresh emptied bourbon barrels. Brewed with six malts of Belgian & British origin. Bourbon in color with a very complex and interesting malt profile. Bright aromas of bourbon, fresh baked bread, caramel, and oak. Velvety texture, rich malt and bourbon flavors with an enticingly warm bourbon finish.

750mL bottle, pours orangey amber. Aroma of intense bourbon, smoked malt and tobacco. Flavour is very strong on the bourbon, big alcohol notes, caramel and more alcohol. Unbalanced and the alcohol is not well-worked, but not bad.

Bottle thanks to BA billshmeinke (another bottle on the way). Pours with a hazed amber body and a tan head. Aromas of brown sugar, vanilla, oak, bourbon, dark fruits, tannins, spice notes and some tart cherries. Flavors of oak, caramel, dark fruits, plums, bourbon and brandy. Some alcohol, but pretty smooth overall. Creamy, medium bubbles, subtle. Rich. I’ve been impressed with everything that I’ve had from these guys!

Growler pour thanks to Sean for this one. Pours out mahogany topped with a small head. Aroma was bourbon, caramel, toffee, roast malts and lots of vanilla. Taste was more of the bourbon, caramel, and vanilla. A boozy finish but very good.

Sample at the brewpub. This beer is a clear reddish-amber color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily. Strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of coconuts, malt and bourbon. Rich body with flavors of bready malt, coconut, cough drops and oaky bourbon. The finish is bourbony with a simmering alcohol left behind. Pretty good all around.
