Borefts X. Day 1. Keg. Clear deep red - amber beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Smooth malts, sweet, good caramel and cream. Delightfully smooth and fruity bourbon. Mild spice. Smooth bourbon finish. Just delivers the bourbon beautifully by the supporting malty base beer.
