Release #2 was aged in some very unique 12-year-old Wild Turkey barrels for 12 months and 5 days. The bourbon from these barrels is a rare Japanese-only release and one of the few 12-year-old Wild Turkeys ever made. They more commonly release 10-year and 13-year-old versions. Although I haven't been able to secure a bottle of the whiskey, I'm happy to have secured some barrels and aged some beer in them for you.

50cl bottle pours an oily, leggy black with some beige head that faded quick. Nose has kahlua and cherry cordial, molasses, coffee, cocoa, licorice. There's a def Jagermeister thing lurking. Flavor has burnt wood and bourbon, vanilla and charred caramel, still some black licorice, cocoa, coffee. Full bodied. Started hot. Then my face got hot and the beer felt less hot. Just off dry. Very full bodied and looooong like train smoke.

Black with a dark head that fizzles off quickly. Molasses, oak, whiskey, vanilla, toasted bread, soy, umami, and light sweetness tying everything together. The body was a tad thinner than expected but still medium-thick. Finish has loads of booze and is quite hot. Lovely beer but the alcohol overpowers it quite a bit. Would really benefit by being a couple points lower to let the rest of the beer shine.

Fat på köpenhamns bästa ölbar . Tidigare provat goose iland bourbon barreld. Så blir galet spännande jämföra med denna.
Färg = är en imp stout
Doft = onödigt just nu
Smakar då? Jo fan jag tar en klunk . Och en till . Här har vi nog den godaste bourbon jag någonsin smakat i en öl . Perfekt balans mellan söt och samtidigt torr bourbon ihop med choklad och liiiiiiiite vanilj. . Denna jävlar bäst idag . Och bäst i år kanske
