22oz bottle picked up at the brewery
Clear dark amber with a medium sized beige head, some lacing. Aroma of caramel, woody, brown sugar and rye spices. Flavors of toasted malts, caramel, whiskey, rye, hot alcohols
Good, but I like the No 2 version with Bourbon Barrels better.

Bottle thanks to Craig. Pours a clear reddish copper color with a small white head. A big sweet toffee and whiskey nose. The flavor is hot whiskey, sweet toffee, hot sugary notes. Hmm. A bit sweet and big on the barrel.
