We made this beer specifically for bourbon barrels. The result is our most acclaimed bourbon barrel beer. Bourbon barrel aging and specialty malts create flavors of vanilla and caramel that blend in perfect balance.

355ml bottle (thx, Yannick!) at Alex’s. Pours a hazy copper with a tan head. Aroma is is lots of bourbon, dark fruits, chocolate, boozy. Taste is the same. Very good. Maybe just because I do very like good bourbon barrel aged beers? :-)

Mahogany color, hazy, small head. The aroma is a bit malty, and boozy, bourbon, light tobacco. Moderate malt depth, sweet caramel, strong bourbon vanilla presence, and quite strong booze too. The low bitterness and high alcohol content mean this is not really balanced beer, but it’s a very good drink.

Tap Hollywood. Like a dark iced tea in color. First taste is big and beefy. Beer soaked with 2 shots of bourbon. Not sure if I get these beers. If I want a boiler maker, I’ll order one. Oh, this is so volatile, its so freakin boozy. Simply too big for this lager lovin sissy. Finish is, just think for yerself, this is a 12% beer? Not impressed. This is an insult to Scotch ale, but not a wee heavy, heheheh unless that is, if you want to get a little dizzy on one beer.

Tap at The Well, New York. Colour is reddish brown with small white head. Aromas and flavours: Ripe fruits, some sweetness, some distant hints of alcohol, caramel and malts. Simple but I like these kind of beers.

Somewhere between a 2 and 4oz bottle pour at SAVOR 2015’s Saturday night session. Poured a cloudy dark brown color with a small tan head. Aroma was nutty, caramel, chocolate, roasted, toasted. Lots of smooth caramel, vanilla and butterscotch. Delicious.
