Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a slightly cloudy, deep chestnut with a small beige head. Big bourbon focused notes with lots of oak, caramel and prune notes with some light char as it warms up. More of the same on the palate, sweet and boozy. Lingering marshmallow, candied yam and bourbon.

355ml can: BB Feb 2022. Drank at home on 16th May 2021. Poured into an old Augustijn chalice, slight mist in the golden body, wispy white head. Aroma and initial flavour of Barley Sugar sweets, but not as 'sweet' taste wise thank goodness. Calmed down a bit and some balance arrived mid-sip. Nice!

US Pint can (473ml), 3.7% ABV version: BB Feb 2022. Poured into a Good People (of Birmingham, Alabama) glass at home on 14th May 2021. Really enjoyed this, nice simple, easy to drink beer without a truck load of hops or strange additives in the brew. Slight haze to the golden body, full white crown on top. Pleasant hop nose and taste, decent malt base and a semi-bitter finish.

Can from Beer 52 – as part of a “New York” box ! Nose has sweet fruits – presumably strawberry, but the chewy sweet kind, not the actual fruit. Pours a very dark reddish brown with a small and transient beige head. In the mouth it’s a lucky dip. Sometimes you get intense dark chocolate, sometimes you get strawberry sweetness. The vanilla is a little harder to pin down until you realise it is what is causing the creamy texture. I really like this beer – but would only drink it on an occasional basis.

Half a litre of draught at home on 2nd Apr 2021, came in a plastic litre bottle from LowCostBeers, my son having the other half litre. Dark bodied, tanned topping. Nice semi-sweet maple syrup feel over the blueberry flavour and aroma. Nice!

Backlog. This is confusing as RB has multiple entries for Dramanatrixxx. From what I can find online, it looks like it’s always bourbon barrel aged and spelled with three ‘x’s. Anyway, not pours black with a small tan head. Smells of roast malt, chocolate and coffee. Taste is sweet but not too sweet with chocolate and coffee. Full body and roasty, the bourbon is minimal. Yummy beer though.
