Light haze on this reddish amber beer, small pale tan head. Smooth and fairly light palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft sweet caramel malts, light sweet fruity bourbon. A little spice on the finish. Decent elements, but feels a bit immature somehow.

33cl bottle (possible bought at Sip). Pours hazy brown with a fairly modest, white head. Malty, caramelly and slightly boozy aorma with notes of bourbon, vanilla and wood. Sweet, warming and rather desserty, maybe the extra storage has done good. Quite pleasant winter warmer, but a bit too much on the sweet side.

Bottle (from taptap). Pours dark amber with beigeish head. Aroma is sweet, oak, apples, malt, booze, fruits. Flavor is sweet and bitter, fruits, malt, oak, caramel, toffee, booze, dryness, some apple notes. Body is quite thin. Overall: good enough, but feels kind as it is barrel ruined. It also don't feel for me particullary as bourbon barrels (are they 2nd or 3rd use barrels?!) and have the apple notes that I usually consider a flaw in barrel aged beers.
