Cask at GBBF 2014 - London. Day 2. Pours clear amber-gold with a few bubbles for a head. Present diacetyl, with notes of toffee, ripe orange, big sugary dough, brown sugar, bread, light leafy bitterness. Full bodied with soft carbonation. Chewy. Sticky sweet on the finish with more dough and some toffee. Meh.

On tap at the brewery, GABF week 2014. I think this the "Bourbon Barrel Rye IPA" so I will put my rating here. Bourbon aroma and flavor. Bitter hops, and some malt. Unfortunately the bourbon overpowers everything else

Gravity dispense at GBBF ’14, day 2, 13/08/14. Very lightly hazed golden amber with moderate light beige spotting and edgework. Nose is caramel forward, vanilla, raw hops, not great. Taste comprises sweet licks, vanilla fudge, caramel, bready, dark fruit rinds. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, sweet and sticky in the finish. Meh - worst beer of GBBF ’14 ? Definately worst from the US bar!
