Bourbon Barrel Aged Porter
This slightly sweet porter is brewed with select additions of crystal malts and sea salt to create flavors of peanut brittle and caramel without being cloying. The medium body and mouthfeel lay the perfect foundation to support the rich vanilla, oak, and bourbon flavors imparted by extended aging in bourbon barrels.

Can, 2024 vintage. Caramel aroma with notes of coconut, vanilla, banana, bourbon and oak. Pours deep caramel brown colored with a thin mocha brown head that has some retention and a little bit of lacing. Starts with caramel, banana and oak flavors as well as having a medium body and sticky sweet mouthfeel. Finishes quite smooth with coconut, vanilla and bourbon flavors. Not as complex as some barrel aged beers but flavorful and smooth.

CD is niet te lezen, maar ik meen dat dit in de aanbieding was bij Beer Republic, dus het zal wel niet al te jong meer zijn - en het staat hier ook alweer even... Een donkerbruine body en een fijne mokkakleurige kraag waar een dun laagje van overblijft. Geur van tannines, vanille, zoetig, chocola. In de mond is er eikenhout, vanille, caramel, iets rood fruit. Smaak is zoetig, iets bitterig, met nog steeds aardig wat tannines. Warmende alcohol, toch is het wel wat dunnetjes. Afdronk is wat geroosterd en gemiddeld bitter. Duidelijk hout/vatgerijpt, maar de bourbon haal ik er niet uit.

0.355l can. Aroma of caramel, mildly roasted malt, wood, nuts and dried fruit. Pours cloudy dark brown color with large soapy light brown head, fair lacing and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts with light sweet roasted malt, follows by caramel, salt, peanuts and wood, mouthfeel is warm alcoholic, while finish is average bitter. Full body, creamy texture and average carbonation in palate. Salto portale…

Can shared in CW - cheers to Cloin. Pours clear brown with a small, creamy tan head. Medium sweet flavour, a bit thin, some cherry, some bready malts. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish. Basic, OK.
