750mL bottle, pours a hazy orange amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out spicy Belgian notes and faint bourbon notes. Flavour brings out fairly rich bourbon barrels, soapy floral hops, and slightly spicy Belgian yeast. Weird idea to age a light Belgian ale in bourbon barrels. Bizarre flavours, but not offensive. Solid stuff for what it is.

Draft at the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a thin frothy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of big whiskey notes, vanilla, apples, other mild fruits, booze. The taste is big whiskey notes, wood, pale malt, vanilla and an herbal finish. Medium bodied, hot, and the barrel character strips out most of the base beer’s character.
