Bomber from Special Brews in Lynnwood, WA. Pours hazy orange gold with a slight white head. Aroma is earth, fruit, wood, and maybe bourbon. I’m a bit uncertain on the whiskey. It’s not rye, but it could be a white wine barrel. Very intriguing aroma. Full bodied. It’s rather sweet - sort of light treacle/stone fruit. Heat is subtle. Looked on the web. Heaven Hills barrels - thus the subtlety. Where did white wine come from? Desperation! This is so complex. I will refrain from compounding errors. It’s very, very tasty. It’s amazing.

22oz bottle picked up at Total Wine in Spokane
Cloudy dark golden with a medium sized off-white head, some lacing. Aroma is woody, whiskey, dark fruit and vanilla. Flavors of wet wood, vanilla, caramel and whiskey
A decent Barrel Aged beer, but it seemed this was all barrel with took away from the beer.
