viomon2 (1), Lynchburg, Virginia, USA does not count Nov 8, 2007 I love this beer. However, it has to be from the right place. I got it from a local pub and it was magnificent. Its a sweeter beer or at least it is after one or two pints. I also ordered this beer at a chain restraunt (smoky bones) and hated it. It seemed to have been overly carbonated so much so as to be undrinkable. In bottled format this beer was great. Unfortunately I can’t find a release date for 07 and wonder if it will be put out again this season. BeerloverEJ21 (131), Georgia, USA Oct 14, 2007 Its been a while since Ive had this, and I really hate rating beers more than a day or two after trying them, but I didnt know this beer was on the site. I thought it was very interesting and very tastey. Aroma of vanilla, bourbon, rootbeer. Had a distint oak taste, with hints of vanilla, hops, bourbon and sweet malt. I really enjoyed this beer. Bradrcr (778), Renton, Washington, USA Oct 8, 2007 10/7/07 From the bottle. Aroma is vanilla and low roast bready malt forward with a light alcoholic note. Appearance is a very nice light copper with a very low off-white head. Flavor is a slightly sour vanilla note forward fallowed by some slightly grainy sweet malt and no hop character. Mouthfeel is medium/high bodied with low carb texture and moderate creaminess. Overall, this is just not easy drinking, but might get better with time. yobdoog (1417), Woodridge NY, New York, USA Oct 2, 2007 Reddish brown color with a nice head that fades fast. Not much aroma, some sourness and a little mellow malt sweetness. Taste a little blanc, not much flavor let alone bourbon. A little vanilla and oak. wshores (57), Saltillo, Texas, USA Sep 8, 2007 This is one of my favorites, I can’t wait until it come around again. I love the dark copper amber color, wonderful vanilla flavor and the clean finish. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 02/09/2006

DougShoemaker (2855), Toronto, Canada Aug 27, 2007 Smokey chocolate nose, copper, pours a small tan head. Taste is treacle, sweet, average. A big Thank You to my dear Friend Helen. colts9016 (198), Idaho, USA Aug 5, 2007 A thin head that is tan, it quickly dissipates. The color is dark amber with carbonation bubbles. The aroma is toasted malt, a slight hint of bourbon and vanilla. The taste is malt and vanilla with hints of bourbon. The mouth feel is watery and thin. There is hardly a finish on it.
