| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 3, 2008 Bottle provided by (again) John C (amazing generosity) at Noog4. Dark chestnut pour with a nice thin head. Very enjoyable aroma. It’s creamy with bourbon and light wood notes. There is also some chocolate and a touch of sweetness left. The flavor is very nice and I enjoyed this blend of flavors much better than BB Speedway. Well integrated chocolate, malt, barrel & wood, bourbon and all in detectable amounts. The alcohol is there but not nearly as hot as some of the other BB aged brews I had that day. Good body, slick and not at all too thin. Very nice. gunhaver (1025), Tampa, Florida, USA

Bottle, courtesy JohnC. Dark brown pour, tons of carbonation and lacing, fluffy white head. Alcohol and roasted notes in the nose, some fruit esters, caramel and some molasses wrapped in licorice. Mellow flavors overall, roasted malts and chocolate, some caramel and a nice vanilla finish. Very smooth, so easy to drink and full of flavor. skortila (2903), Bunnik, Netherlands
