Feb 12, 2009 deep ruby amber pour with a thin cream colored head that dissipates to a ring quite fast. nose of fruits, oak and raisins. very fruity flavor of cherries, wood and caramel. great finish that is very easy on the body with a nice alcohol touch in the end.

Feb 5, 2009 Updated: Mar 8, 2009Thanks ogglethorp and Brigadier. Caramel and oak dominate the aroma, and they are nice. Flavor starts off with caramel and raisiny malts, offset by a definite fire in this beer. Bright, reisnous oak builds in the middle, and slowly tails off into a finish of wood, booze, and butterscotch. Tannic astringency and a definite alcohol warmth nicely balance the sweetness of the malts. Medium to thick body, and very smooth.

Feb 3, 2009 Bottle: A cloudy copper brown pour with a thin beaige head. Aroma is bourbon filled with a little sweet and sour poking through. A bit of maltiness. Flavor is nicely smooth; a mix of sweet maltiness, a tangy sour feel, and a complimentary amount of bourbon barrel. I really like this tangy, fruity, yeasty thing going on right before the bourbon mellows it all out. Thanks to biggcb for bonusing off my wants list!

Jan 11, 2009 Bottle thanks to goldtwins. Pours a ruby hue with a medium light brown head. The aroma is funky; some Brett for sure, bourbon, malts, and some fruity sweetness. The flavor is excellent; some initial funk, lots of barrel and bourbon goodness, some sweeter fruit and yeast, lightly sweet and slightly sour. Some vanilla and oak flavors, wow this is nice. The tartness plays so well with the bourbon barrels, this is pure genius. Slightly warm, but not boozy at all. I wish I had a case of this for cold nights.
