Jun 24, 2008 Lovely, simply lovely. Hazy peach coloring, with small creamy white head. Light alcoholic nose, with some hint of light fruits, and just a tad bit of barrel age coming through on my last whiff before sipping. I like how the spices from the yeast intermingle with the tannic qualities of the barrel aging. Still remains very well balanced and soft on the palate. I felt very good after finishing this bottle.

Jun 13, 2008 November 2007 bottle. Hazy golden amber color, nice thick and creamy head. Aroma of caramel, with some fruit and malt notes too. Lots of carbonation, somewhat crisp mouthfeel. Taste less complex than expected--perhaps needed more time to age? Flavor strongly caramel, also malt with mild spice and hints of citrus. Drinkable, but not one I’d go out of my way to try again.

Jun 4, 2008 Updated: Feb 28, 2009On tap At Lunar Brewing, Villa Park, Il.. Poured into the snifter, a hazy, gold/amber hue, with a bubbly, quickly diminishing, white head, and solid lacing. The aroma was light malt and fruit sweetness and attention getting alcohol. The flavor was the same notes, with the bourbon becoming more of a reality. Expected a little more balance, with the strong bourbon stealing the show. Appreciated this a little more the second time around.
