Bourbon, boozy and barrel aged. Bit roasty and thin, easy to drink. Thanks Alex R.

Good stuff. Vanilla and oak, a bit of chocolate. Booze, a bit of burn. I have a CW pint glass but that would be disrespectful for such a decadent beer.

12 ounce bottle, 7/12/25. Clear dark brown, medium tan head, average retention. Aroma of ginger, roast, soap, caramel. Sadly a soapy note. Taste is roast, cherry, ginger, lime, strong spice. Tart, not much barrel character. Gingerbread viibe. Meh.

Sampled from the tap at the MKE location. Pours a hazy yellow gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has dank citrus, light tropical fruits and sweet grains backing. Flavor has dank citrus and grass with a bit of tropical fruits in the finish.
