375ml @ Ryan's shared with Phill.
Aroma: caramel, bold, sweet, just a bir of alcohol.
Taste: along the same lines, very malty, some booze, black tea, a bit of herbal bitterness.
Overall: kinda a refined malty liquor, enjoyable.

Poured from 375mL bottle. Clear amber orange with very minimal white head. A bit sticky and a touch thin, boozy underlay with some port and cognac notes, but don't really pick up the rye whiskey, seems a bit muted, on par with my experience with Drake beers generally - slightly underwhelming. Appreciate it more as it warms - began with a 3.6/5, move it up to 3.8/5, and finally finished at a 4.0/5.

Not sure how many times I've been to the Dealership and managed to not try this beer. Slight haze and pale. Medium head. Has some grape, light tartness, not all that complex but comes across natural.

Tart, no head, pale. Simplistic structure, basic lactic acid and some fruit. It’s fine but below the median.

Medium brown, nitro head. Ok, nitro taste, some roast, muted bitterness. Would have been better on co2, of course.

Pale and slight haze with no head. Acidic, almost bracing. A splash of peach helps it to work, providing just enough sweetness.

Dull haze to this, thin head. Light, almost tea notes, and moderate bitterness. But the lightness of the malts isn’t effective here.

Bright gold. Smells like it’s going to be sticky. There’s some weedy, mushroomy hop notes, the malt is a bit sticky, and then the alcohol comes in harsh late.

Draft. Black beer with a tan head. Bourbon aroma. Bourbon and caramel flavor. Medium bodied. Bourbon and caramel linger with light dark fruit.
