Medium brown. Medium head. Thin and light aroma, comes across with a bit of caramel. On the palate, it's light, sweet. Honestly it needs some bitterness. And also, barrel-aging such a light beer doesn't work. There's nothing to carry the barrel anywhere, and how long was this in the barrel? The base goes nowhere, nor does the treatment.

500mL bottle, pours a dark brown with a small white head. Aroma is dry, with tons of dry bready malt, not much else—no barrel character detectable. Flavour is extremely drywith bready malt and little else. No bourbon nor any barrel character. Little depth whatsoever. Pointless creation.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Dark brown with small off white head. Mild fruity porter with super feint barrel hint as if it was aged next to the barrel, not in it. Average.

500mL bottle. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Wisps of malts on the nose. Flavour has thin malts, very dry. No hints of bourbon whatsoever. Completely useless.

On tap at Thirsty Bear. Clear golden with medium white head. Nice clean mexican lager, bit corny and easy drinkable. Touch of sweetness. Light bodied.

Pretty flavourful compared to your average wheat beer. More like a saison, with some hay notes and bitterness. Golden pour with ok head. Light bitter end. Can.

473ml can. Pours a clear amber gold with a medium, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves sticky curtains of soapy lace. Aroma of pale malt, grapefruit, pineapple and grassy hops. Sweet flavour of pale malt, grapefruit, mango and piney hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light to medium body with an oily texture and average to soft carbonation. Not as good as Longshadows, but still solid.

473ml can. Pours a clear copper with a medium, foamy, short lived, beige head that laces nicely. Aroma of toasted grainy pale malt, caramel and nuts. Sweet flavour of toasted grainy biscuit malt, caramel, toffee, orange zest, nuts and grassy hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light body with a slick texture and average to soft carbonation. Well balanced and crushable.
