Super dark, almost pitch black coloured body with a nice two to three centimetre tall rich lighter brown head. Aroma of super bourbon, vanilla, oak, grain, caramel, toffee and bunches upon bunches of alcohol - quite strong with a lot of bourbon as well. Full-bodied; Super strong rich malt flavours dominate at first with a lot of vanilla, anise, grain, earth, toffee and pure bourbon notes show through with a lot of legs and residual flavours from all the bourbon and vanilla that make this deep and lingering. Aftertaste shows the anise and licorice flavours at first with a ton of bourbon notes, some vanilla and sweetness and ending with a good deal of biscuity, earthy flavours that hit quite hard, especially with the high alcohol that really shows it and the complexity from the barrels. Overall, a nice and enjoyable beer with a ton of complexity from the aging process, but a lot of earth, vanilla and grain make this a bit more rounded. Great to try if you like bourbon-aged beers as this really shows it - and the complexity is driven from that side of things, but goes down not too harshly after a year or so. I sampled this ten ounce pour on draught at Blatt Beer & Table in Omaha, Nebraska on 06-November-2018 for US$10,00.

Draft. A- Soap, lavender, caramel, mild whisky. A- Brown color, cloudy liquid, tan head. T- Caramel, toffee, booze, fruity, gum. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, malty finish. O- Murky appearance. These territory reserve beers have left me less than impressed. Not bad, but I just don't find a lot in them. Decent enough though.

Can. Pours a murky pale bronze hue with a white head. Citrus aroma. Taste is citrus, tropical fruit, some malt. Not exactly inspiring.
