6.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Poured from 330mL bottle (vintage 2020; side says "Black Albert 4R Bourbon barrel aged"; Lot: 2023004 - bb 01/02/23 +5yrs; label say 13%, Ontario LCBO testing says 11.3%; OG 26,0°P - 72 ibu; 134 Ebc - 12,6 Kcal/Cl; label art reads "Truth Can Set You Free"). Very dark brown with minimal light beige head. Dark sugars, feint brett and bourbon notes, medium bodied, not really my style, but okay.

Poured from 500mL bottle (2024 vintage). Hazed light amber brown with small off white head. Quite dry and bretty upfront, doesn't leave much else to the imagination. Some very feint hints of caramel malt. Okay.
