Capped 750 from Special Brew in Lynwood, WA. Pours coppery/ruddy dark brown with a slight tan head/smear. Aroma of treacle, chocolate and very light vanilla. Full bodied. Flavor is treacle, yeast/banana, chocolate, and bourbon light. Heat is noticeable, but not bothersome. Banana gets stronger with time. I’m liking it.

Bottle. 2013. Mahogony beer with a big tan head. Big bourbon aroma with vanilla, light chocolate, light spice, and light fruitiness. Bourbon and vanilla flavor with caramel, spice, and yeast. Medium-plus bodied. Caramel and bourbon linger with spice, light vanilla, and oak.

750mL bottle, pours a dark mahogany with a medium beige head. Aroma of bourbon, vanilla, candied sugar, and bubblegum. Flavour of banana, candied sugar, vanilla and light bourbon. Highly carbonated, boozy and uncomplex. Not the greatest.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a deep brown color with a small white head. A light bourbon nose, heat, raisin, light caramel. The flavor is sweet caramel, toffee, some vanilla, sweet barrel, more heat in the flavor, light spices and wood. Pretty nice.

750ml bottle pours a clear brown with some very frothy, white head. Nose has some dried leaves, musty. Flavor is malt, apple, a little butter. Medium bodied, slightly hot finish. All over the place.
