500 ml bottle from AE, 12/17/21. Note: This is the version from the Anniversary release, AE has released 3 versions of this beer as of today - 2 on the 1st Anniversary - October 2021 (Whiskey & Cabernet), as well as a 3rd version (Whiskey w/ Hazelnuts and Cacao⁠) in December 2021. This seems to have confused a number of people, as they all have the same label with a slight change being a circular tag on the left side of the label differentiating the versions. As for the beer, darker brown in color, thin brown head. Roast, vanilla, caramel, and toffee. On the sweeter side of balanced.

Bottle from the brewery from the 1st Anniversary release, 11/24/21. Dark brown pour, thin tan head. Roast, wood, and booze. Vinos, somewhat earthy. Astringent notes. A touch disjointed at first, but it rounds out nicely as it warms. Good stuff. 7/4/8/4/15

Draft at AE, 11/6/21.  Pale yellow, ring of white head.  Herbal, grains, some hay.  Not sure I would have recognized the pea without it being in the name, but knowing it's there it's very present.  Tingly.  Fairly clean.  Pretty good. 7/4/7/4/15

12 oz can from AE, as part of the 1st Anniversary release, 10/29/21. Pours a clear gold with a white head. Bright, grassy and grainy. Has some lovely spice, dough, and lemon zest. Crisp, clean. Tingly, almost peppery close. Crushable and flavorful, what else could you need?
