12oz bottle from Firestone in Paso Robles. Nose is vanilla, bourbon, caramel, with hints of toffee and cocoa. Brown with a big tan head. Flavor is lightly sweet, with a hint of bitter, and a bready note.

12 oz bottle. Pours dark amber to brown with a one finger beige head with decent retention. Aroma is nutty, caramelly, dark fruit. Taste has a rich caramel soaked bourbon and nutty flavor profile. Somewhat thin mouthfeel. Excellent beer overall.

Rocky & creamy white head stayed on a reddish brown still body.
Molasses, raisin, malt & bourbon aroma.
Medium to full bodied, smooth & creamy with a thinner cloying back.
Toffee caramel, molasses, demerara sugar, bourbon & liquorice tastes with a tang on the fruity finish.
Excellent.
gave a cheers!

2023 editie (ik geloof niet dat er tot nu toe een andere is geweest). Kleur is diep roodbruin, met stukjes die erdoor drijven. Kraag is beige en zakt snel weg. Geur is zoet, bourbon, rood fruit, houtig, iets umami. In de mond wordt het zoet, boozy, bourbon, fruitig, toffee, iets kruidige bitterheid. Smaak is vrij zoet met een vleugje bitterheid, hout. Medium tot volle body. Eindigt met medium bitterheid. Heerlijk zoals gewoonlijk van FW, maar niet zo fantastisch als Bravo.

Very malty sweet with modestly good barrel character but the underlying imperial brown ale does little for this beer it got the body to support a nice barrel and caramel character so therefore it’s not bad

Bottleshare at CBJ, thanks to Cloin. A light haze on this amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy palate, smooth, a modest fine carbonation. Smooth malts, a decent creamy caramel sweetness. A little dried fruits. Some spice and peel bitterness on the back end. Mild spicy linger.
