The pour was somewhere between orange and brown with nice clarity and a short off-white head. The aroma was malt, wood, bourbon and light tart fruits. The flavor was bourbon soaked fruit with lots of malt, wood and thin hops. Nice mouthfeel. Very easy drinking. pjweaver (133), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 19, 2008 Pours redish orange. Smells heavily of oak, cherry and vanilla, spicey bourbon, plum and fig. Dark fruits an vanilla are prominant as well as bourban flavor. Not bad, the heavy alcohol warming on a cold winter night like a good bourbon. BMan1113VR (2897), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA
