Growler from the brewpub. Nose very hoppy with floral, ivy, pine, and citrus notes. Lightly hazy orange-copper with a medium, glass-lacing, offwhite head. Flavor is bitter with pine, and some background caramel. Pretty nice hoppy stuff for a single IPA!

Draft at the brewpub!! Nose of light bourbon (really heavenly smell of bourbon not the cheap and overdone smell some other BB stouts have), chocolate, and light caramel. Black with a semi hazy brown edge and a medium glass lacing beige head of tiny bubbles. Flavor of chocolate, bourbon, and more chocolate. Body is medium thick and creamy. Finish is light bourbon flavor without the alcohol heat. My favorite KRB beer so far! Dec 12 09 18 months in the barrel now and on draft at the brewpub! Still great and even more Heavens Hill Bourbon especially in the flavor. Great stuff! Too bad it’s almost all gone!

Growler from the brewpub! Nose iwith caramel and notes of corriander, vanilla, toffee, and some light floral hops. deep copper with a medium, nicely lacing beige head. Flavor has light bitterness, corriander, and caramel with a light background touch of honey. Finish is a light bitterness and corriander. I just can wait for the BA pinot noir version to come out of the barrels! And what a session brew this would make if I could get it all the time at 5.2% ABV!

At the Bruery Tasting. Pours with a large off-white head that leaves great lacing and a hazy amber body. Aroma of pine and citrus with some caramel following. Taste is great with pine hops, caramel, toffee, and a bit of spicy hops on the finish. Light bubbles.

Growler from Brewpub, is also bottled. Nose of rye breadiness, and a bunch of floral hops with a touch of ivy. Translucent copper with a medium beige head that laces lightly. Flavor shows lots of rye along with the the hoppy bitterness and peppery spiceness. Finish a nice long bitterness. More hoppy than the 2007 with this new recipe.12/10/2008 Last cellared bottle 7/16/19. Hops have disappeared, now more a barleywine with toffee, rye bread, a light sweetness with just a hint of contrasting bitterness, and just a slight hint of oxidation. Actually it has aged amazingly well as I prefer it to the sixer of 2019 Bigfoot I have been drinking this week.

Dark amber colour. Plummy dark fruitiness but some some apricot in the nose alongside brown sugar and toffee. Mellow, soft malts and strong dark fruit notes. Well-balanced. I didn’t pick up any rye but I almost never do.

Growler from the brewpub; Nose of sweet cloves, caramel, and light yeastiness; hazy copper with a medium beige head; flavor has the corriander, some mild hop bitterness, and caramelized sugary taste. Finish has a bit of hops. Alcohol completely covered. Good quality BSA but not great, I am waiting to see what the brett-chardonnay BA version is like? That one could be superb!
