A little disappointed that I am trying this before the non barreled version, but that’s okay. I know where they hang out. Draft pour at Hop and Hound, left over from brewers night. Looks like I missed a great night, but glad some beers survived to tonight. Copper pour with not much head. A sweet yet bold brown sugar aroma. Quite pleasant. The flavor seemed off for me at first, but as this warms a bit, the dark fruit, brown sugar, raisin, and caramel flavors all come out and present nicely. Has a doughy remainder that is quiet and not off putting. Slightly rich, but not enough to bother. Smooth bourbon notes without being boozy tasting, and a comfortable warming to it. Very impressed with this beer. I love to see barrel aged beers that are a little different in style and in overall flavor. Well executed barrel aged offering here.
