Dark amber. Light head. Araoma of vanilla, alcohol a little funky but pleasant. Grows on you like the flavour which starts a bit muddled with lots of vanilla, caramel and bourbon? Needs a stronger beer base. It is an interesting blend.

Tap. Sweet malt aroma. Dark amber color with slight head. An artificial cherry flavor dominates - really hard to taste any thing else. LIght body. Not even the slightest hint of bourbon. A mess.

On tap at Trovatos. Orange-honey color with a huge head so big that the bartender had to pour it 3 times. Slight floral nose. Flavor better than buttwiper with a slight cor base. Odd essence of a Belgian wanna-be, quite different than a typical A-B product. Watery palate with no suggestion of bourbon at all.

Draught at the 4th St. Station; Downtown St. Paul. I didn’t know this was an Anheuser Busch product. The aroma has a lot of vanilla. Strange flavor; light bourbon and loads of cream soda, or, "pop" as it is correctly called in Minnesota. Light amber color with no head, and on the thin side for palate; but overall not bad.

Pours with a foamy, largish off-white head that flattens over a clear reddish amber body. Head leaves some lacing. Aroma of bourbon essence and oak with a bit of caramel and some banana esters. Taste is completely graham cracker with cinnamon. Slight banana, bread, vanilla and cardboard behind. Fizzy and watery thin mouthfeel.

Draft. Ruby amber beer with a nice off-white head. Vanilla aroma with some sweet malt. Big vanilla and oak flavor with light bourbon and some caramel sweetness. Easy drinking. LOTS of vanilla.

$7 draught served in a plastic cup at Nationwide Arena. Clear dark amber color with a compact beige head. Decide lacing despite the serving container. Light malt and vanilla aroma. Medium-bodied with mild hops, malt and caramel flavors. Nothing I would mistake for bourbon though. The finish is a little watery and sweet. Not sure what the goal was here but this needs some more work

Smokey chocolate nose, copper, pours a small tan head. Taste is treacle, sweet, average. A big Thank You to my dear Friend Helen.
