Bomber from Total Wine. 8.2% ABV. Aroma is coconut, cashew brittle, vanilla, apple, slightly woody. Pours hazy amber with a one finger bone white head that falls into a ring somewhat quick. Taste is sweet and savory with flavors of the barrel, apple-like. Seems a little thinner than it should be, but it's not too detrimental to the overall experience. Extremely tasty.

22 ounce bottle. 8.2% ABV. Amber orange pour. Frothy beige head with nice lacing. Toasted malt nose hints at fruit and light oak. Rich toasted malt flavor. Notes of brown sugar, toast, oak and honey. Hints of apple and vanilla as well. Subtle whiskey undertones lead to a bittersweet, sticky, resiny hop finish. Well done.

22 ounce bottle into tulip glass; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours slightly hazy deep orange/light copper color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and rocky cream colored head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big honey, brown sugar, brown bread, biscuit dough, vanilla, whiskey, and toasted oak; with lighter notes of coconut, caramel, toffee, herbal, wood, pepper, and oak/toasted earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of bready malt, whiskey barrels, and light earthy hop notes; with great strength. Taste of big honey, brown sugar, brown bread, biscuit dough, vanilla, whiskey, and toasted oak; with lighter notes of coconut, caramel, toffee, herbal, wood, pepper, and oak/toasted earthiness. Light herbal/woody bitterness and whiskey/oak spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of honey, brown sugar, brown bread, biscuit dough, vanilla, whiskey, toasted oak, coconut, light caramel/toffee, and oak/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of bready malt, whiskey barrels, and light earthy hop flavors; with a nice malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and zero cloying sweetness after the finish. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with zero yeast notes present. Slightly increasing dryness from bitter/spiciness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/silky, and slightly sticky/tannic mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol or barrel booze for 8.2%. Overall this is an excellent barrel aged maibock! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of bready malt, whiskey barrels, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV, with the mildly bitter finish. Very clean and nicely rich pale/Munich malt flavors, with really awesome balance of the Dead Guy whiskey barrels. Hop bitterness is reduced from the barrel aging. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.
