Pour is a murky river water brown with a small white head. Aroma is pretty much all bourbon barrel. Lots of oak and char. Flavor is honeycomb sweetness with alcohol and lots of the barrel. Very smoky and vanilla bourbon with a touch of molasses spice. This is a Dierbergs only beer and I think it was $7 a bottle. This was well worth it and I may go pick up a few more. Flavorful bourbon notes with just the right amount of sweeter malt.

Pint can - clear light amber - nicely rich maltiness that is bready and lightly sweet, tempered by a light acidity and some finishing floral bitterness - clean, balanced, crushable - some rich nuttiness and dark bread on the tail end, along with a light spiciness - yum!

From City Brew Tours, no dating.

It pours a slightly hazy gold with an abundance of foam, shrinks slowly leaving good lacing behind.

The smell is cloves and banana, light citrus, fruity.

The taste is fruity..lemon, big time cloves, banana, yeasty, not sweet nor bitter.

Lighter end of medium bodied, lively carbonation.

Nice beer.

From City Brew Tours, canned May 25th.

It pours a pretty clear straw yellow with a tiny head of foam, gone in seconds and no lacing.

Smells of tangerines, peel and maybe the pit as it's rather a pungent aroma.

Taste is the same. Not much to expound on with a Radler. Maybe some notes of lemon.

Light bodied, not watery.
