On draught at the brewpub, this is the November selection in Elevator’s "PHD" program, and my 100th Elevator beer. The beer pours a slightly hazy dark brownish-amber color with a medium thin light beige head that recedes steadily. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. The aroma is oaky with bourbon, malt and fruit notes. Full-bodied with flavors of oaky vanilla, bourbon, roast malt and fruit. The finish is oaky with a bourbon and malt aftertaste. Solid beer all around.
