| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 16, 2009 On cask 1/26/08 at the Atlanta Cask Ale tasting: Transparent dark copper brown with a thin, airy off-white head. Aroma of sweet caramel, butterscotch and vanilla with some mild bourbon character. Starts fairly full and dark caramely sweet with a touch of oak and good bourbon balance. Has some mild butterscotch notes, likely a result of the barrel-aging. Has decent complexity and drinkability. jrob21 (1268), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 17, 2008 Cask ale festival ’08. Tasty vanilla and roasted malt flavors. The maple syrup sweetness is faint but noticeable. Also a pretty nice touch as it adds a different sort of sweetness to beer. Aromas of nuts and wood. jsh12bama (337), Alabama, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Feb 9, 2008 Cask @ ATL Cask Ale Fest ’08. Minimal bourbon aroma and taste. Not a fan of this at all. Below average. aracauna (2391), Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 31, 2008 This was a bit lighter in flavor than I was expecting. It’s still not overwhelmed by the bourbon from the barrel, but there’s not as much complexity to the flavor as I was expecting. Hank1980 (764), Athens, Georgia, USA
