On tap at Rattle’n’Hum. 06 vintage. First beer of the night. Double Bastard is a great beer by itself, this brings a nice flavor however does give it a little more of an alcohol burn.

On draft at R & H. 06 version. Pours a dark semi clear amber with a medium light beige head. Aroma of brandy, dark fruit and dark sugar. Taste of brandy, dark fruit and dark sugar. This one clears out the sinuses.

Smooth and sweet with a very noticeable brandy flavor. Rich and hot, with malt, sweetness and herbs. There is hoppy bitterness and alcohol heat in the finish. This is the first brandy barrel aged beer I have had, and it is rich, potent, and superior. Unusual and very good. On tap for Stone week at Rattle’n’hum.

On tap at DLD ’09. Cloudy amber pour with a medium tan head. Hoppy aroma with a nice malt balance and a bit of booze. Vanilla oak flavor up front followed bready malt and a hoppy and boozy finish. Very good.

On tap for Stone night @ Rattle n Hum. 06 version. Pours a dark semi clear Amber colour with a small white head. Aroma of raisins, fruit, caramel, and brandy. Taste is the same as the aroma. Has a slightly bitter aftertaste.

Had on tap at Stone night @ Rattle n Hum. 2006 version. Wow, strong! Literally a swift kick to the jaw. Pour is off brown and clear. Taste is booze, cherry, brandy, dark fruits, grain alcohol. Would make a hell of a sipper.

awsome version of an already great brew. The brandy barrel aging added even more of a fruitiness on the nose. This also came across in the flavour as a sweet cherry component seemed to complement the flavour which was more complex than the regular double bastard. It also seemed to hide the alcohol better than the regular double bastard.

Draft at Sunset Grill. 2006 vintage. Poured a clear dark orange color. The head was off white and left some lace behind. The aroma was of booze and toffee. Full bodied with a warming alcohol effect. Sweet up front with mild bitterness at the end. I tasted dark fruits, toffee, and raw alcohol. Good stuff.
