On tap at Gigante, pours a clear amber with a small off-white head. Aroma reveals fairly subtle vanillin character from the bourbon, with a soft caramel malt base. Flavour is surprisingly smooth, with soft vanillin, oak, bourbon, and toasted caramel. Pretty soft and restrained for a 10% bourbon BA beer. Would be nice to have more oomph in something like this, but this is pretty nice as a subtler, easier-drinking bourbon ale.

On tap at Gigante, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma is full of English bready malts, light coffee, and earthy cocoa. Flavour is much the same, with clean, English-style brewed malts, a touch of dry cocoa, and a hint of coffee. Clean and easy-drinking, but nothing special.

On tap at Gigante, pours a clear dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out a nice resinous hops, some pine, and toasted bready caramel all in good balance. Flavour has a pretty deep resinous hop character, light pine, and bready malt to back. Really great malt character serving up the resinous hops. This is frankly excellent.

Pours a mostly clear gold with some frothy, white head. Nose has orange, some citrus candies, tangerine, grass. Flavor has all of that, some candy hop notes that ring more guava than tangerine, but the orange is there, some light honey, just a touch of actual candy/yeast that detracts just a bit. Finished watery.
