Pour is a clear copper with a large white head. Aroma is piney old school hops. Flavor is more of a dry biscuit malt with a very minimal hop profile. This was a weak offering. The aroma had promise but not much from the hops showed up in the flavor.

16 oz. Can thank you tfontana for the share. Aroma bold raspberries, soft pie crust. Flavor follows. It is sweet and tart at the same time. Soft vanilla. But it makes sense that it has lactose. Good mouth feel and body.

500 ml bottle shared by Clark, thank you. Aroma is vanilla, dark chocolate, black licorice and bold bourbon. Good bourbon remain strong in the flavor with the noted vanilla, dark chocolate, and secondary black licorice. The body is full but is a tad Boozy. If you like Weller bourbon this will work for you. Bold bourbon.

Bottle shared by ClarkVV--thanks, Clark! Inky, opaque black with thick viscosity, no head or lacing. Aroma is strong bourbon, tobacco, vanilla, anise, mild chocolate. Taste is bourbon (aggressive, harsh), chocolate, vanilla. Smooth, thick texture, medium bodied, harsh alcohol astringency, earthy malt. The bourbon is just too hot for this to be enjoyable. Give it a year or so to mellow and maybe then it will it its sweet spot but too harsh.

Bottle drunk 5/3/25.
Clear, small head.
Rich Weller laced tobacco, with thick, syrupy fudge and vanilla.
Graham cracker, rich acidity with intense bourbon lead and tons of char.
Vanilla syrup, chocolate and char with light roast, rich, juicy chocolate wafers and acidic maltiness. To the point of this being over-barreled, I think that's definitely a thing and a very real possibility here, though how delicious Weller is makes it hard to see it as a flaw. But the flavor profile, even a year out, is basically all barrel.
