750 ml bottle thanks to John. Pours a cloudy red brown color with a small white head. A big sweet woody bourbon nose. The flavor is big sweet malts, caramel, fruity, berries, sweet sugary base. Awesome. This really has one hell of a nose; sugary, sweet barrel almost like cognac. Vinous. Lovely beer.
