Sep 22, 2009 On tap at Beachwood. I really dug this one alot. Color was amber to auburn. Aroam of wood, bourbon, dough, alcohol with not much sour or funk. Flavor was great; cookie dough, bread, fruit with some sour notes. A dry finish. This one was a great surprise.

Aug 1, 2009 The last of the keg. Pours with a tan head and a amber body. Aroma of bourbon, oak, tartness and brett. Taste is wood, vanilla, brown sugar and a light funk. Light bubbles. Not bad, would like to try more.

Jul 18, 2009 Bootlegger’s Kentucky Wild 7/4/09 (on tap at brewery. For a neighborhood brewery, making a “wild” ale is a step in the progressive direction. Pours gold with a small head. Aroma is of funk, dried citrus fruit, and acidity. Flavor starts off funky yet sweet, then moves towards wood, funk-tartness and hay. Solid offering with enough variety in flavor to keep it interesting.

Jul 17, 2009 On tap at the brewery, this is a bourbon barrel aged amber ale...
The bourbon barrel imparted some vanilla and some sourness on the beer. Interesting experiment, but for the time spent in the barrel, I’d hope for more complexity.
