Pint can pours with a clear copper body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up brown sugar, plum, booze and flowing into date like earthy spiciness. The taste delivers smooth sweet rounded barrel booze and sweet plum and apple fruitiness. Behind those notes are thin layers of reduced sugar sweet slickness. This is a solid sipper with a nice balance of flavors. It could benefit from a bit of age in order to blend the various sweet and boozy notes a bit more.

Pint can pours with a murky deep copper to mahogany colored body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up spicy malt blunted oak, molasses, bourbon and the more oak. The flavor offers up some spicy oak nuanced bitter spicy oak and then malts and molasses. To midway a pleasing level of bitter hops wells up to balance out the sweet malts and the mild level of sweet fruity esters goodness. I ends with an up welling of booze and bourbon joining in along with the other notes. This is nice but is strong with the bitter spicy oak and booze.

32oz crowler pours with a clear deep copper brown body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up a blend of spicy english ale yeast, cracker and biscuit as well as light notes of molasses, caramel and toasted bread. The taste delivers similar flavors like biscuit, spicy crystal malts and spicy yeast flowing into sweet malts, a thin earthy wet tobacco sensation and estery sweet plum. This comes together nicely.
