IPF'nA - Bourbon Barrel

Took me a while to figure out I had a different beer from the IPfnA already on RateBeer. A pint can purchased at the brewery a few weeks ago, cool label. To commemorate the event I have my snifter from nearby Cowtown Brewing out for this one. The pour is unusual, one of the darkest IPAs I have ever seen, a dark brown with gold around the edges. No head to speak of. The scent is unusual too, a touch of hops, booze, grain and honey. I lift the glass for a drink, bourbon, a little hops, a little grass, caramel and malt. Damn it, I like this. Reminds me of 120 Minute which took me somewhere I had never been before. This is like that. And the brewery is a nice place to visit too.
