375ml. Think this cost me $35 at the brewery. I get this is estate grown and Virginia bourbon barrel aged but damn, that's steep. Deep, oily, brown, ring of khaki head. Legs. Nose is deeply malty, grain, butterscotch, nuts, huge treacle. Sweet, malty, grainy and the barrel and booze arrive. Full bodied, long, sticky finish. Good. 8 8.5 7.5 7 7.5
