On tap at GABF 2012. I think this won gold. Pours a deep murky brown color with a small grey head. A big woody sweet bourbon nose with light dark fruit. The flavor is a big scotch ale with dusty fruity malts and big bourbon bite. Very warm. Good.

Can. Bready, slightly sour caramel malt aroma. clear deep honey amber with a small off-white head. Flavor is same as the nose .. bready, slightly sour caramel malt flavor, with a very subtle herbal bitter finish. Medium body and carbonation. Something about the bread/hops combo wasn’t working for me.

Canned at PBF. Hazy amber/copper, minimal head. Strong vanilla/bourbon aroma. Mid sweet wtih full body and rouinded mouthfeel. Caramel supports the heavyn bourbon character. Warming finish where alcohol lies under the surface and bitterness is balanced.
