Bottle shared by the generous crowd at Salud, thanks! Dark brown, almost black, brown head. Aroma of burnt espresso, cocoa, prunes, figs. Taste is roasty cocoa and dark fruit. Not too boozy. Good stuff.

12oz bottle pours a neon grapefruit red with lots of sticky, bubbly, white head. Nose has a lot of soap, perfume, grass, some mild fruit, a little fruited iced tea, some tooth paste. Flavor is again kind of tooth paste-y, some grass, a little tropical fruit tums, some bubble hum, some perfume. Chalky finish. Lots of dragon fruit, that’s for sure.

Bottle shared at the DC Pre-Thanksgiving tasting. Wax on this thing was so much easier to get off compared t oearlier ones. Poured a hazy, cola caramel brown color with an off-white head. Aroma was caramel malts, some woody barrel notes. Flavor was light boozy notes dried fruits, butterscotch.

Location: 750 ml bottle, 11/11/14
Aroma: The aroma is strong bourbon over some more subtle roasted coffee and chocolate
Appearance: It pours an almost black color with a small head and some light, spotty lace
Flavor: The flavor is sweeter, with chocolate, coffee, vanilla, bourbon, and some fruity notes
Palate: The body is medium-plus, it has a soft-to-average carbonation, and a clean finish
Overall Impression: I felt like the bourbon swetness and booziness overpowered everything else in the aroma, but the complexity comes through more in the flavor. Overall, this is solid and well-made. Definitely leans sweet.

Lots of barrel. Syrupy and a little too sweet for my liking. Brown and murky pour. Lots of booze and some light roast in here. Thanks to Radagast83 for this.

Bourbon, honey, and grapenuts aroma. Cloudy ochre, headless. Singular bourbon flavor, not super strong, with a beechwood finish. Medium body, but completely devoid of carbonation. Something’s not quite right about the conditioning of this beer.
