Aroma of caramel malts, nuts, vanilla, wood, pipe tobacco, and bourbon. Taste of caramel, dried fruits, vanilla, molasses, and nuts, with some bourbon alcohol in the finish. Thanks Mike! mkobes (2104), paramus, New Jersey, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 28, 2007 Another typical NG unplugged. Hops, caramel, vanilla, alcohol, brown sugar... all of which seem to combine to the same datey flavor... and always cherries... cherries. Please stop with the cherries!

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Dec 22, 2007 A big sweet beer infused with caramel, raspberries, vanilla and green wood. The finish has a brief alcohol bit but otherwise this is a pretty fine beer. Also, it’s not cloyingly sweet; it lets the alcohol and other flavors come through.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Dec 21, 2007 Pours coppery color with pretty much no head. The aroma is very sweet, bourbon and wood. Hints of vanilla cherry. Body is a tiny bit fizzy but medium thickness. Flavor is a sweet bourbon and vanilla for me. Overall pretty good for this style. The flavors come out and the touch of bourbon is not overpowering. valpoaj (363), Valparaiso, Indiana, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 20, 2007 Clear mahogany pour with small head that dissipates quickly...almost looks like actual bourbon. Aroma is strongly bourbon, with some vanilla and wood accents...very nicely done! Flavor is very, very mellow and pleasant, and dominated by caramel malts and smooth bourbon up front, and then you get a bit of sour tang near the end; although the bourbon did dominate to some extent, there was enough complexity to this drink to keep it pretty darn good. Nice carbonation on the palate...great offering by New Glarus. fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 19, 2007 12 oz bottle thanks to Secret Santa. Aromas are wood and tartness. Burbon on the flavor with more wood and Bretty flavors. Sweet fruit finish with no sign of alchol under the oaky notes. Pretty darn tasty

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 18, 2007 12 oz bottle. Poured medium amber color a bit lighter then I had expected. Certainly lighter then NG Uf da boch. Thin white head. Aroma of bourbon but amazingly it was very light in the flavor. Sweet plum fruity flavors instead. A slight oak finish. Pretty good.
