On-tap at the release party. Served up in a snifter, this one is a coppery gold color. Very clear with a small trace of foam around the edge of the glass. Very sweet and bourbon filled smell. Sweet malt, toffee, caramel, vanilla and coconut are all present. A touch of hops in there also. Whoa, such a big and flavorful beer, this does not disappoint. Loads of malty sweetness with notes of caramel, toffee, coconut and vanilla bean. The bourbon really stands out strongly as well and compliments the big malty sweetness of the beer. Tons of flavor with some moderate complexity. Very smooth with some stickiness. Carbonation is more than adequate and very soft. Full bodied for sure. Truly a great beer. I had a two of these with ease and could have had another, but decided to save it for the bottles I purchased. This is an absolute winner in my book. Can't wait to enjoy them out of the bottle over an extended period of time.
