Draft. Mahogony beer with a dark cream colored head. Chocolate and light coffee aroma with light bourbon. Light caramel and light chocolate flavor with light bourbon. Lighter body than expected. Light caramel lingers with light chocolate and light bourbon.

Bistro -bal fest 2010. Medium dirt brown color with a small but lasting light tan head. The aroma is chocolate, nuts, oak, vanilla, and bourbon. The flavor is pretty nice, a little sweet but not too much, with a good nutty and cocoaish brown ale base and a not too intense -bal character lending oak, vanilla, and slight fruity notes. Body is medium and the carbonation is on the softer side. A pleasant surprise actually, as this was pretty good after I didn’t expect much.

Tasted at the 5th Annual Bistro Barrel Aged Beer Fest on 11/13/2010. This brown ale pours a medium brown color from the tap. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is fruity and sweet, a touch of wood and bourbon. A medium bodied brown ale. The malts are fruity, nutty and sweet. The hops are herbal and earthy. Decent carbonation. A touch of wood and a little bourbon, more in the background than anything else. Mouthfeel is full. The finish is clean and smooth. The aftertaste is slightly sweet.

On tap at Bistro BA Fest poured a clear brown with a small lingering tan head. Aromas of milk chocolate, carmel, vanilla, light bourbon and light oak. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of milk chocolate, carmel, vanilla, light bourbon and light oak with a smooth lingering carmel finish.
