This beer is a clear copper color with a thin and dense off-white head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing. Citrusy hops in the nose with floral touches. Medium body with flavors of floral hops and citrus along with light malt. The finish is hoppy with a bitter aftertaste that does not linger too long. Decent overall.

This beer is a deep brown-black color with a medium tan head that recedes quickly. Top ring of lacing with spots underneath. The aroma consists of dark malt, oak and coffee. Full body with flavors of oak, vanilla coffee and burnt malt. Bourbon character is well-subdued. The finish is malty and leaves a nice vanilla and coffee aftertaste. Overall this is a decent Stout that falls more on the side of a good Coffee Stout rather than going overboard with the barrel aged flavors.

(10/14/08) Bottle (thanks a lot archmik for this bottle!) sampled at my hostel room in Chicago. Hazy golden. Aroma of fruits, some wheat and hints of citrus. Sweetish wheaty flavor with fruits. Light-bodied.

Bottle: Pours a murky caramel color with a modest, creamy beige head. Smells strong of floral hops, but also wheaty. Maybe even a bit soapy? Taste is rather dry and abrasive. Florals, again soapy, and some wheat. Hot and brash. Plain and simple, I just didn’t like it.

Pour is a deep black with a small tan head. Aroms is mostly dark chocolate with some moalsses. Flavor at first starts off with some chocolate but after the swallow the bourbon hits you. This is by no means a complete bourbon bomb like some others i have had. This is most subtle which is a nice suprise.

Pour is black with a than head. Aroma is more wood and smoke than bourbon but still smells decent. Flavor is pretty decent. I get lots of chocolate and vanilla with a touch of the bourbon. A pretty tasty offering.

Pour is a dark brown with no head at all. Aroma is dark fruit with some candi sugar and some of the alcohol. Flavor is almost a candi sugar bomb. After the swallow some dark chocolate and cherries are left on the tounge to rescue it. A very slight alcohol is there to give you a nice warm feeling. This is a well made beer and you can tell a lot of work went into it but it is also a tad too sweet.

Bottle. Dirty brown pours with a substantial, but diminishing tan head. The aroma is malty with notes of roasted malts, chocolate and nuts. Hint of metal. The flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter and lightly acidic. The finish remains sweet with a slight tartness and only a hint of bitterness. Medium body with a lively carbonation and watery texture. Off flavors of butterscotch and metal.
