unclemattie (1661), Georgia, USA Oct 11, 2008 12oz bottle. Light orange color, bright and clear. No head. Aroma is of straight whiskey. Great smell being i just finished off a bottle of Woodford Reserve. Big vanilla flavors. Like a vanilla creme soda. Very light colored, light bodied. I liked it. ATLBeerDog (233), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Oct 11, 2008 From a 12oz brown bottle - Pours a clear reddish/orange. No carbonation, very light lacing . Smells of strong bourbon. First sip tastes like a glass of scotch on ice that whose ice has completely melted leaving a watery flavor. Other than the bourbon there is not much going on. A big disappointment. donrajin (233), Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina, USA Sep 19, 2008 This beer is way too sweet in my opinion. That is about the only thing that stands out about this beer. Malty Sweet. Way too much sweetness and not enough balance to be classified as an amber ale. hillfiiiiire (211), Atoka, Tennessee, USA Sep 18, 2008 Pours a golden amber with little to not head retention. Aroma is the standout quality here with a subdued bourbon character that doesn’t go burning my nose hairs and is a nice crisp sweetness. Flavor falls quite flat though. Nothing but bourbon is going on. Very thin body that almost feels watered down. The beer’s like drinking a bourbon mixed with a lot of seltzer water, and I’m mostly okay with that. nqualls (422), Tennessee, USA Sep 16, 2008 Bottle. I rather enjoyed this. Poured a clear amber into a shaker with a one finger off white head. Aroma of sweet malt and bourbon. Flavor is very sweet. Bourbon without the bite. Decent beer.
