Tap at APEX, Portland - 06/11/12. Mid black with a thin tan head that soon clears. Nose comprises wood tones, chocolate, roast malt, bourbon and dark sweet sugars. Taste follows nose with more bourbon, wood, chocolate, molasses, leather. Medium to full in body with light carbonation leading to a boozey bourbon inspired finish.

16 oz can courtesy of bvc. The pour is a very hazy orange yellow with a firm two inch egg white head. Head falls slowly and noisily with nice lace. The aroma is soft smooth wheat grain, along with clove, lemon grass and an herbal lemon-lime. The taste is the lemon up front, the grassiness of the lemon grass, and soft wheat grain and clove in the back. Nice integration of flavors. The palate is light to medium bodied, a touch under carbonated, with a pleasant un-filtered mouth feel and the clove lemon lime finish. Nice Wit, thanks Brandon.

16 oz can courtesy of bvc. Thr pour is a hazed golden yellow with a one inch white head. The aroma is naturally sweet malt, grainy, bit of earthy corn. The taste is less sweet grainy malt, corn, and a bitter sharpness to the finish, though its really a hop bite, more of a grain bite. The palate is medium bodied, pleasantly unfiltered mouth feel, and the dry sharp finish. The dryness makes it easy to drink. This was pretty interesting, certainly unique. Thanks for sending this my way, Brandon.

bottle - Pours hazy with a huge head and heavy lacing. It smells mainly of bourbon and Belgian yeast. The flavor includes high bitterness, prominent bourbon, spicy Belgian yeast, florals in the background, and a long bitter finish. In my opinion the floral character is mostly buried by the bourbon and hops, so for a beer intending to feature roses they could have been more in the forefront. It works well otherwise though. Good brew.

Draught. Barrel is in the aroma. Rather like Wild Turkey Bourbon. Full bodied with much roast, some vanillin and cocoa and coffee. Full finish, I’m glad I tried this

50cl Can, brought from the US, thanks H&T! Hazy golden yellow colour, fluffy white head. Aroma of floral hops, grapefruit, hay, sweet lemon, really vibrant and fresh. Flavour is light sweet, lemon, pale malts, floral, light yeasty, nice bitter grass and grapefruit finish that lingers a bit. Light-bodied, soft mouthfeel. More an APA than a lager, still a really fine beer.
