0.355l bottle. Copper body with basically no head only a tiny white lace. Burnt sugar and caramel notes in the aroma with some oak, tequila and lime. Taste of burnt sugar, licorice, lime juice and oak. Sweet, salty and sour at the same time. Lime and licorice is a bit wierd combination for my palate. Interesting beer. Not something I would by regularly, but still I'm glad I tried it.

0.355l can. Black body with a lasting brown head. Aroma and tate of coffee, chocolate, some vanilla and prunes. Some floral hoppyness shows up at the end of the sip, but really not that bitter. Smooth, silky texture. Nice balanced beer.

0.355l can. Clear golden body with a white head. Classic American IPA notes of grapefruit, orange zest and pine. It also shows some sugar syrup and a hint of booze. Nice one.

0.473l can. Pours like engine oil, but still leaves a sizable and lasting brown head. Roasted malts come first in the aroma, but there is a nice fruityness to it too (think about plums and raisins). It also shows a generous amount of spicy and earty hops. Subtle smoky notes can be felt too. Taste of dark chocolate and roasted malts with a plums, raisins and a lot of spicy and earthy hops. Full bodied with moderate carbonation and oily texture. OG RIS and a great example of it.

0.355l can. Dark brown body with a beige head. Aroma of chocolate, reisins, plums and a bit of oak. The taste shows some notes of the bourbon too not just the oak. Chocolate and raisins are present too with a hint of orange zest and some plums. I think the barrel aging works in this beer as it only gives a nice twist to it, but doesn't overpower it. Good one.
