Small sample from tap @BBF ’16. Amberish color, hazy. Beige head? Aroma’s: sweet, vanilla, I actually thought it was bourbon barrel aged, but what do I know...Retronasal it was sweet, boozy, ok, cognac, caramel. Flavor was sweet, caramel. Strong alcohol feel, sharp, burning. Medium to full bodied. Finish is woody, vinous, complex. Pretty darn good
