Barrel Aged Claymore Scotch Ale
Digging through some old papers, I found these notes from last year. Similar to the regular version in appearance, although nosing this one shows a marked difference. Huge bourbon up front, finally settles into oak, smoke and a hint of chocolate. On the palate, again bourbon is the dominant character, fighting with the smoke before finally letting just a bit in at the end. All in all a very nice beer, if a bit one dimensional.
