It is black with a red hue and a creamy head. The aroma has notes of bourbon, wood, roasted malt, light ashes and dark fruits. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of caramel, vanilla, bourbon, spicy alcohol, chocolate and wood. The bourbon is just right for me, a nice one indeed. JMFG (1514), Florida, USA

Aromas of vanilla, burnt oak and bourbon, no real overt booziness. Extremely smooth taste considering the aroma, light vanilla and roast, some light tannic notes.

Aroma, oak and bourbon, some chocolate and coffee. Flavor, chocolate, some oak, caramel, coffee, and some bourbon. You won’t forget that the bourbon/oak is there, but it isn’t overwhelming. Solid brew.
