Winters Bourbon Cask Ale

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Spice/Herb/Vegetable
St. Louis, Missouri USA

pours a semi-clear dark copper with a small beige head, and a little lacing. smell is of sweet malt, caramel, some spice, and a little woody. taste is watery, sweet, malt, spice, caramel, bourbon in the back, and brown sugar, ends a little too sweet.

Not shabby for a cheap beer in a real dive bar. A tiny bit sour, but could have been a dirty tap. Smooth and sweet.

Pours clear amber brown with a fizzy offwhite head. Aroma is stale corn with sickly sweet vanilla extract. Flavor is very sweet with an overload of vanilla. Stale corniness present in base, almost like cardboard which is then taken over by the sweetness which is way too much. Not recommended.

Bottle pour. Really wanted to like this. I was interested to see how the macros micro would turn out. Nice color and aroma not too bad but the flavor got worse as the glass got emptier. I did taste traces of bourbon but got no vanilla. Had a nice little alcohol pop but difficult to finish the glass. Sorry. Would not reccommend.

bottle poured an amber in color with a thin off white head. aroma has sweet malt, some fruit, and some faint vanilla. mouth feel is light with sugar on the tongue and low carbonation. flavor has a sweet malted body, funny extract vanilla, dark fruit, and a bit of bitterness perhaps from the wood. no bourbon to be found but overall it is not terrible.

bottle, pours light amber with a thin to non existant off white head. Aroma is strong vanilla and sweet brown sugar. Sweet flavors almost like vanilla ice cream with little else going on. The sweetness tastes very artificial. Not a fan.

Bottle. Poured copper-colored with a twinge of ruby and a medium off-white head. Aromas of vanilla, roasty malt, caramel, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Flavor is vanilla upfront, mostly sweet malts, and a slight bitter finish. Medium body. No bourbon present as far as I can tell, which is too bad. Not nearly as bad as I had expected.
