Draft at St. Maarten’s. Pours dark brown with a thin frothy brown head. Fair head retention. Aroma of vanilla, chocolate, nuts, moderate whiskey in the finish. The taste is wood, roast, chocolate, vanilla, bourbon, herbal hops, mild toffee. Medium bodied, highly drinkable. So often whiskey and vanilla are overbearing in beers but this one is exceptionally balanced. Well done.
