Cigar City Big Sound Scotch Ale Bourbon Barrel Aged

Brewed by Cigar City Brewing
Style: Scotch Ale
Tampa, Florida USA

Pours a cloudy brown mud, full sheet. Big bourbon, vanilla. And notes of choc. In the nose. Big bourbon notes valong with a thick chocolatey malt character and background booziness. Very nice and warming with sophisticated bourbon and malt and pretty agressive hopping.

Courtesy of ericandersnavy. Brown color with a tan head. Big boozy chocolate, mild roasty malt and dark pit fruit aromas. Smooth medium body. Nice smooth vanilla, dark pit fruit sweet flavors with medium roast brown malts. very good.

25.4 oz bottle. Deep purple brown with a thin tan coating. Massive spicy nose of prune, peat, vanilla, scotch and bourbon. Zesty carb cuts through a rather full body. Taste is woody molasses and currants, scotch then huge bourbon lingering through the finish. Over the top but it works for me.

Thanks to beerlando for this brew It pours dark, opaque brown with a touch of red highlights and has a thin yellow/brown head. Creamy on the tongue, it has a bit of a sticky taste with some nice maltiness. The barrel aging plays well in the background.

Bottle 75cl.
