On tap at DRBT 10. Pours a dark brown with small beige head that lasts. The aroma is dark fruit, rye, wood, bourbon. Slick body, raisin, licorice, wood, rye, boozy finish, very good.

Taster at the brewer - and with a beer like this 3-4 ounces is enough - I wasn't that much of a fan of the base beer, and this one kicks up the booziness factor considerably - tastes like brown sugar, whiskey, plum, mild oxidation - very hot - the finish has a lasting burn to it - mostly tastes like whiskey, and not even good whiskey - remember when you took your first swig of whiskey that you snuck from grandpa's liquor cabinet when you were a kid? - do you remember what that tasted like to you? - this is like that.
