| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jan 2, 2009 On draft at the brewhouse. Strong bourbon smell with some caramel and oak. Flavor is more of the same. Heavy on the whisky and oak, with the original Okanogan Black Ale almost falling behind to the added flavors from the aging. miketd (685), Cleveland, Ohio, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 19, 2008 At brewery on December 19, 2008. Served in a short snifter for some reason. Insanely dark with no head. Aroma of currants and bourbon. Waitress said it was aged in a whiskey oak barrel, makes sense I suppose. Flavor is more of the same but with light raisin raisin... reminds me of liquor infused candy, but... beer. Thick, sweet, delicious! hillfiiiiire (286), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 18, 2008 Pours a nice roasted color. Smells like watered down bourbon and a little coffee. Flavor is interesting. Rather sweet with some woodiness and something else I really just do not quite get. A little thin. A meh beer. ketchepillar (497), Des Moines/Grinnell, Iowa, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 17, 2008 Smells like old roasted barley (main characteristic), slightly peaty and smoky, stale coffee, maple. Flavor: caramel, milky, woody, smoky, slight hop bitterness, some vanilla bean. Tastes like the water profile could use some work-metallic. crowderm (285), Recklinghausen, Germany
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 17, 2008 Mahogany pour, little head. Aroma of vanilla, sweet white wine, slight whiskey, wood, wet earth, burnt toast. Taste is oak, vanilla, sweetened black tea, very slight bourbon flavor. Very long vanilla finish. Mmm. Mouthfeel is pretty thin, but doesnt detract too much from the flavor. Pretty interesting beer, pretty good too. ericandersnavy (1141), crossroads, Texas, USA
