2015 bottle shared by AdamC on 10/15/16.
Deep mahogany-caramel body shows a good clarity and dark beige head atop with moderate retention.
Big bourbon notes in the nose are actually fairly well-balanced by a rich caramel-toffee. Almost salty in its character and well-pitted against the spice and liquor of the bourbon. Vanilla, honey, caramel and even light milk chocolate notes provide an easygoing character and while the bourbon is very strong, it’s not terribly aggressive/sharp. Alcohol is well-concealed. Very light oxidation, with dates, chocolate and nougat lingering.
Sweet in the mouth, with a pleasingly syrupy texture that is easily cut by the bourbon and oak. Spicy liquor and dry wood are balanced against rich caramel-toffee. Vanilla lingers, as well as chocolate, raisins and figs. Low carbonation, but what’s there is engaging. Little/no alcohol apparent. Gentle acidity on the finish. Sugars and bourbon linger.

Bomber, picked this up in June in Pits. Lost half of the bottle to gushing. hazy reddish orange, no head. It smells pretty good. Malty, almond joy, coconut and vanilla. Very thin body, has a lot of faded brown ale elements, creamy, sweet, corn, and vanilla. Not awful.

650 ml shared by AdamChandler. Darker, dirty brown color, no head. Aroma is English toffee, earthy grain, oak, bourbon vanilla.
Flavor shows a lot of bourbon, oak, mild malt. Medium body that leans on full. Big bourbon character without any alcohol trace. The bourbon nearly overrides the other flavors. But I am totally fine with that. The barrel has a strong showing here.

Sampled on draft at Tapped this beer poured a murky orange-brown color with a large fluffy orange-white head that left great lacing. The aroma was sweet with strong banana, vague spices and whiskey. The flavor was biting and rough with vague spices, strong banana, cheap whiskey, sour caramel and some astringency. Long finish. Moderately full bodied. Disappointing.

wew, glad I didn’t have to enter this one! Tap patricks pub. Initially it seems to be a mild critrus grapefruit thing. Then, it kicks you in the face with a big bitter, so astringent bitter. Better to say ass kick, hehe. So bitter. Inteh end I need a plain pld cheep lager to rinse it down as a chaser. Not too enjoyable inthe end but that’s just MHO. Co2 at least makes it drinkable.
