Bottle shared by Marcus. Pours dark brown with a transient head. Aroma of oak and dark malt plus bourbon. Dark fruit! Med + body. Flavor is moderate bourbon, dark treacle, plummy fruits and some oak astringency. It’s not wholly dry, but it’s very smooth and tasty. Excellent.

Bottle received in trade and split a few ways during the All In Beer Fest. Many thanks to clownoisseur for hooking me up with this. Also what I’ll enter as my #4000 rating (my actual chronological unique "beer" 400 can be viewed here: http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/schramms-madeline/335761/127604/ ). Pours viscous very dark wooden brown with no head leaving some nice looking legs on the glass. Smell is fat, malty and fruity with sweet dark bread, caramel, toffee, banana bread, vanilla fudge, charred wood, raisins, plums and cherries in brandy, moist soil, leather, toasted coconut, bourbon alcohol and hints of cloves. Taste is sweet, tiny bitter, very tiny our, heavy malty, fruity and tiny spicy. Mouthfeel is viscous, oily, flat, round, slightly boozy and near full bodied. Finish is sweet, tiny bitter and very tiny sour with sweet dark bread, caramel, toffee, banana bread, vanilla fudge, toasted cookies, charred wood, an assortment of dark dried fruits in different liquor, toasted coconut, caramelized hazelnuts and brazil nuts, moist soil, bourbon alcohol and hints of cloves and coriander. Amazing malt dream fat doppelbock action with some suiting fruity esters. Heavy amazing barrel treatment. Flat but gets away with it by being so fat oily and tasty. --- Beer merged from original tick of Bourbon Barrel Aged Trippel Weizenbock on 07 Nov 2015 at 16:38 - Score: 9
