Tap: Poured a dark hazy golden color ale with a generous head with OK retention. Aroma of strong bourbon notes with light vanilla with some hops that are noticeable but also quite buried. Taste is also dominated by light caramel malt notes with strong bourbon notes and some light butterscotch. Body is quite full with good carbonation and some light warming alcohol is apparent. I am usually not a big fan of bourbon hoppy beer but I though this was well put together.
