    Rated in 2009. Pours deep amber with thin tan head. The aroma is sweet malts, dark fruitiness, bourbon, oak and some boozy heat. The taste is complex with bourbon and oak heading into sweet malts, molasses and sweet nuttiness. Also running above these flavors are notes of bourbon alcohol heat and hops blending together. Toward the finish the barrel notes overtake the once full complexity of roasty malt notes of this blended beer. Upon further samplings the mix of nuttiness, roasty malts, bourbon and oak create an interesting sensation that becomes a bit too bourbony for me into the finish.

    also some tart sour cherries (from the barrels?). very similar to batch 2, with a little less body...more brown, less scotch, but still a sipping, complex, fruity sour, bourbony brew. also murky brown, though a touch lighter and not quite as good.

    Bottle 21/480. Murky dark brown pour with a thin short-lived head. Huge raisin, oak, and bourbon aroma. This is really potent and I like it. So, after the aroma, I was surprised to find this drinking a little thin. Still, a pretty nice blend of flavors; tobacco, bourbon, oak, leather, licorice and raisin. A good beer for sure but doesn’t have a lot of wow to it.
