Mar 9, 2009 Sampled @ 9th AZ Strong Beer Festival. Bourbon wood aroma stands out in this one. Black body with tan head. Mix of creamy chcolate and sweet bourbon for flavor. Dry on the palate maybe little too dry for me.

Mar 4, 2009 2009 Boulder Strong Ale Festival: Overall, I thought this one was good ... but it was a case where I thought flavors were just OK yet aromas were very nice, namely: coconut, honey, chocolate, vanilla, whiskey, oak and dark fruit. Only a mild bitterness finished it off.

Mar 2, 2009 On tap @ AZ Strong Beer Festival. This one was surprisingly indicative of GIBCS!!! The nice thing was this was quite as viscous, pungent, or aggressive. Dark mahogany pour bordering black with a small cola ring. Heavy bourbon, bitter chocolate, and roasted coffee. S’mores in a glass.

Mar 1, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra at BSAF. Excellent roasty and bourbony nose. Bourbon is subtle and excellent in the flavor. Very smooth and very thin-bodied. Still pretty solid.
