2007 bottle - Pours cloudy orange with a superb hop aroma accented with both citrus and pine. The flavor leads with some big, sweet malts that are soon overcome by huge, citrus tinged hops. There’s some earthiness to the malt that I’m not sure is my favorite thing, but it doesn’t really detract either. This beer is big and still quite drinkable. Enjoy the long, bitter finish.

Hazy amber. Rich malty nose with alcohol, light peach, and some phenols. Soft caramel, with an earthy character. Has a gentle fruitiness and finishes with an alcoholic splash that melds with the caramel.

06 Bourbon County Stout-12oz bottle-pours a disappearing brown head that laces and black as midnight color. Aroma is bourbon, wood, sweet dark malt-molasses, dark fruit-cherry, alcohol. Taste is bourbon, tar, wood, sweet dark malt-molasses, dark fruit-cherry, alcohol. Big. Sipping. Thanks to decaturstevo for sharing. 100408 @CBC–on tap 3.7 Ok, have had many releases of this. The 2020 was very good, and enough to bump the rating now even with the alcohol heat up to 4.1 if only the mobile slides would move more than one space.

Cloudy orange with a small white head. Caramel pine and citrus in the aroma. Dry with some malt flavour. Limited bitterness and hop flavour, but a tasty easy drinker.

12 oz bottle. Pours a golden amber with a medium head. Aroma is strong grapefruit hops with perhaps even a little lemon. Flavor is at first dominated by grapefruit and other citrus flavors with somewhat low bitterness for an IPA, but unfortunately there are also some more grassy notes that throw the flavor off for me. I enjoyed this at first, but it turned out to be a bit of a miss for me compared to where it started.

12oz bottle pours a oily, thick, opaque, deathly black with a thin brown head that disappears immediately. Aroma is incredibly boozy, whiskey, bourbon, vanilla, oak, tobacco leaves, molasses and moist earth. Big time flavor of vanilla, butterscotch, oak, molasses, caramel syrup, coffee, kahlua and wood. I expected the flavor to be too much, and actually there was more fruit than I anticipated (cherries, plums, raspberries). Thick on the tongue, creamy in the throat with a heavy alcohol feel and burn in the throat. The aroma might scare you off, but the flavors are very complex.

2007 bottle - Pours black and oily with a thin tan head. The aroma is of bourbon and roast malt with vanilla notes. The flavor has very apparent bourbon, but it doesn’t overwhelm the big roast malts and the coffee and vanilla accents. It’s full bodied and very tasty. I’d vote for dialing back the bourbon just a little bit, but it’s an excellent brew.
