Aromas of light vanilla, caramel, nuts, lightly woody with some bourbon. Tastes of nuts, woodiness, toasted malts and light bourbon. Thinner body. The barrel aging does not take front stage (only a portion aged in bourbon barrels) but makes it self known. bu11zeye (5545), Frisco, Texas, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 9, 2005 Pours a dark amber mahogany with a frothy off-white head. Has a sweet grainy, earthy malty aroma with some hints of diacetyl and bourbon. Starts sweet and buttery with a touch of earthy hoppy bitterness and nice bourbon balance leading to a dry, bittersweet finish. An ok bourbon aged beer, but could stand to lose some of its buttered popcorn character. hopscotch (5501), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 7, 2006 Bottle... TITW Part Deux... Clear, deep amber ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Good retention. Black tea, bourbon, caramel and vanilla in the nose. The flavor is all about chocolate, toasted nuts and vanilla. Medium to full-bodied with a milky mouthfeel and gentle carbonation. Finishes sweet and chocolaty with "just enough" bourbon. Best brown ale I’ve had in a very long time. A shout goes out to Monger for sending the bottle!
