Apr 14, 2008 Updated: Jan 11, 2009Twist-off bottle, undated. Pours a clear Mahogany red with a solid tan head. Oaky, malty aromas. Light-to-medium body, creamy mouthfeel. Early toffee character. Caramel flavor dominates. Sweet flavor balance. Subtly vanilla notes. Very late oak dry finish.

Apr 13, 2008 Bottle - Large, but unimpressive head with no retention. No lacing. Weak spicy aroma. Nice copper color. Some vanilla in the taste. This is a reasonable attempt by AB to create a different product. Not great, but kind of interesting. Much better then their flag ship macro brews. Would drink again.

Apr 5, 2008 Not your typical ale by far. Very surprised this is from Anheuser Busch, I quite like it.
Tastes like ok bourbon.

Apr 4, 2008 Suprisingly thick pour, caramel brown in colour. Sweet scent with a touch of vanilla. Somewhat odd taste, thick and sweet with lots of caramel and more of the vanilla. Very supprised this is from Aheuser Busch, I quite like it.

Mar 28, 2008 ...I was surprised when I got this cheap stuff at the jiffy. It had nice vanilla notes, with the bourbon finish. I was also surprised that it was AB, since everything else they produce is basically undrinkable. Could be better, but not as bad as it could be.

Mar 27, 2008 12 oz bottle pours a nice cherry amber color with almost no head. Aroma is nice, but lacking. Some licorice sweet malt and what I would call a fake alcohol aroma. Flavor is much of the same some vanilla and burbon, but poorly done. Like they found some syrup that tastes a little like burbon and put it there. Medium body, a little thin maybe. Not terrible, but I would only have this when nothing much else is available (they do have it at Tucson Ice Cat Hockey games so I will have it there).

Mar 21, 2008 Where is the bourbon flavor or aroma? And the vanilla is barely noticeable. Not the worst beer on earth like most AB products, but not so great either.
