Bottle. A hazy, dark golden-orange beer topped by a small, dense, off-white head. The aroma has lots of citrus peel and pine cones, some peach hints and a touch of grapefruit. Not much bourbon detected, if any at all. That’s a good thing I think. The flavor has the hops dominating, giving bitterness and flavors of pine cones and grapefruit. Too much alcohol warmth on the palate, it’s full-bodied and with a nice carbonation level. Lasting bitter finish with alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice one, but it’s too warming. 140228

Bottle @ fonefan tasting. Unclear amber with a small off-white head. Aroma is dry, malty, wood, cigar box and moderate hoppy - grapefruit. Flavor is quite sweet and rather bitter. Dry and rather bitter finish. 280214

Bottle @ fonefan tasting. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are rich hops, flowers, little wood, citrus and malt. Nice bitter finish.

Keg at Brewdog Camden; clear light copper pour with foamy white head, tangerine aroma, subtle bourbon taste works well with the tropical hops, a hint of spice and wood.

Keg at IMBC 2013. It pours hazy golden amber with a medium white head. The nose is piney, orange, tangerine, marmalade, vanilla and oak. The taste is wood, earth, orange, marmalade, alcohol warmth, vanilla with a dry, bitter finish. Smells rather nice, but taste doesnt quite match up. Decent.
