Thick chocolate raspberry bourbon milk. Fruited stout done well. It's mellow, curious to see how this is aged.

Side by side with 2018, thick and way more chocolate notes, bourbon still all over the nose and finish.

Still drinking solid, side by side with the 2019, thinner but plenty of bourbon and chocolate notes left. More barrel and less chocolate.

This was awesome fresh, 5 months later it's now mostly orange, I wasn't a fan but I won't change my fresh rating of this cause it was amazing

Effervescent and dry tartness with plum finish and burps. Like a mix of berries and stonefruit.

Salesforce tasting, bottle; 14.9% ABV
Amber colour, slight haze. Spirit in the nose. Nice caramel flavour, moderately sweet, not as rich as a classic Barley Wine, and with quite a strong booze kick. Touch of vanilla, bourbon.
Very good.

Gnarly how much cab sauv notes this takes on, I used to drink just cab sauv back in the day before Malbec took off and before craft beer went critical. Brings back memories. Nose is sweet and tannic, fuzzy and berry notes throughout

Light brown, no head. Rich bourbon on the nose, lots of wood, some vanilla, some nice toffee elements as well. Big and boozy, lots of bitterness, those nice toffeeish notes roll over the tongue, and a hit of vanilla in there as well.

500mL bottle, pours a fairly clear dark copper, very small beige head. Nose is full of toffee and vanilla upfront, followed by bourbon barrels, caramel, and more toffee. Flavour is intense, with lots of toffee, deep bourbon barrels, vanilla, and sweet caramel. Quite a lot of booze, but it's integrated well. As it warms, the bourbon really warms the cockles -- lovely caramel and toffee finish. Excellent.
