Bottle #02022. Vintage 2014.Pours dark brown color with reddish highlights and a thin tan head. Aromas of bourbon, caramel, vanilla, oak. Bourbon foward flavor but not too overpowering. Sweet caramel and vanilla flavors with oak. Medium to full body with minimal carbonation. Surprisingly good for a Shipyard beer.

Pours deep mahogany into a tulip. Mocha head with medium retention recedes to mottle surface. Dark caramel, soy and dried fruit aromas. Medium bodied with soy and licorice upfront turning to sweet vanilla and caramel before the lasting charred oak finish.
