Not an attractive pour, kind of a murky brown, but I forgave that once the other sensations kicked in. It had an aroma of Bourbon, cherry, vanilla, and charred wood. Tart and a tad funky, all gathered from the nose blended into the flavor accompanied by a slight touch of hop bitterness and a hit of alcohol. Very tasty. I missed the hops from the original, but the funky fruitiness made up for it.

poured much too cold but after a 15 min chill down everything came together and added up to a slendid experience. after the warm down the apple, wood and vanilla really came through and dominated an excellent brew. dark copper pour, huge bourbon notes great apple deliciousness. another treat from tim.

Sampler. Cherry cider smell from my sampler tumbler. Cloudy, almost sludgy brown color, just a rim of foam around the edge. Sweet and fruit-tart, with threads of bourbon and vanilla, cherry cordial, and a bit of a vodka burn. Tartness stays in the background, and some hops turn up right at the end of the experience. 350th Illinois Beer! Counting all the "Corporate" Rock Bottom ratings that I’ve only had at the Chicago RB!
