On tap at the brewery during their 9-year anniversary weekend. Pours very dark brown with brown highlights. Small brown head. Aroma of rich malt and flavor as well. Alcohol is well hidden here. A slight roast and faint vanilla from the barrel. Nicely done.

375ml bottle pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is sweet jammy peach notes and a sour kick. Taste is more of the nice big peach forward notes and a well balanced sour kick.

375 ml bottle. Aroma is coconut, cocoa nibs, earth. In the flavor, the coconut does not hide itself. Shows a bitter chocolate for balance, and also notes of wood and roasted mall.It is a liquid alcoholic Mounds candy bar. Pretty decadent.

Bottle. Mahogany beer with a tan head. Bourbon and vanilla aroma with yeast, spice, and caramel. Bourbon and vanilla flavor with caramel, oak, and yeast. Medium bodied. Oak and bourbon linger with vanilla, caramel, yeast, and light spice. Oak barrel takes over - a little too much.
