Bottle, 2013 vintage. Pours hazy reddish hazel, small creamy beige head that dissipates leaving nice residual and lacing. Aroma is malty, dark sugars, a bit of cherry, vanilla. Flavor is quite sweet, out comes the bourbon with lots of dried fruits and dark sugars, date, prune, cherry, some oak, vanilla. Light bitterness and some ABV burn, but actually not bad. Full body, creamy, perhaps a bit chalky mouthfeel. Really solid effort. Kudos guys.

Hazy amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and crisp. Light malts bring mild sweetness. Tangy orange hops, some marmalade. Touch of lemon peel. Light finish with mild peel bitter linger. It’s fine but lacks vibrancy for a West Coast IPA, possibly not that fresh.

Was listed as a Pilsner at Antenna America. I assume its the same beer, as I couldn’t find a Pilsner. golden color. Fairly lifeless mouth with low hops and low malt. Slight sour. Boring as hell.

Bottle. Blonde, sweet, honey and biscuits, apples, Belgian yeast spice. Decent but not so impressive. Crisp effervescence.

Thanx Dara for the can.
This was poured into a thistle.
The appearance was a dark red to brown color with a one and a half finger white foamy head. The lacing was there as it speckled and slid around in a messy sort of way.
The smell had a light bready sort of yeasty roastiness that came through slightly like a biscuit.
The taste took those flavors and added a nice caramel and toffee-ness rolling all around and added a nice element of smoke at the end.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a slight sessionability about it. As it warms, a nice creamy sort of delicate soothing nakedness strolls across my tongue.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good Scotch I could bang again.

Bottle thanks to Matt. Pours a hazy orange gold with small off white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is funk, cherry skin, oak. Medium mouthfeel with light cherry tartness, oak and dry finish. Good.
