[1] Review by Stoutlover72 from Northern, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/15/2006 9:14:14 PM)
"Poured out an amber color with a nice head and good lacing. Aroma was vanilla, oak, whiskey and hops. Flavors were pretty much the same as the aroma but it was really strong with the whiskey flavor, which drowned out most of everything else. I think that with some age things would mellow out a bit. Looking forward to try this again in a year or two."

[2] Review by E from Spring Mountain, PA, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/28/2006 8:15:34 AM)
"Poured a hazy amber color with a small, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of vanilla, strong oak, sticky malts, and bourbon. Taste was dry oak, light vanilla and dried fruits, sweet caramel malt, light citrus, and bourbon alcohol in the finish."

"Had this on draft at Pizza Port's strong ale fest Dec 2005.
This poured amber colored, with very little head. The flavor was sickening sweet. it was very thick."

[4] Review by Vac from San Diego, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (9/13/2005 3:09:12 PM)
"Pours with an amber body topped by a medium thick to thick head with a good amount of lacing. It’s slightly sweet and oaky with a strong whiskey note, a peppery bitterness and a nice underlying hop note. Not bad, will be really good with a little age. Full bodied, warming and dry."
