Off-dry, medium to full bodied, medium bitterness, creamy CO2. Rich, complex, spicy taste, yeasty phenolics, malt, wheat, earth, lemon peel, dill, wood, Bourbon, honey. Extravagant! (2012-06-13)

Bottle. Pours hazy orange with a white head. Bourbon aroma up front, with light fruity notes, spices, and a hint of tart fruit. the flavor has bourbon sweetness, sweet caramel malt, fruity and spicy yeast, just a touch of bretty funk, light tartness, and lightly toasted malts. Good shit.

Local 1 with brett and barrel aged. Yellow with white head. Aroma is carribean oranges, pineapple, banana and the flavor follows. Bourbon is present certainly.

The aroma is funk, sour, bourbon. The appearance is hazy orange gold white head. The flavor is sweet, tart cherry, funk, bourbon- nice. The finish is tart cherries, pine hops. Medium in body. Awesome.

Fantastic. Pours a cloudy orange with a dense white head. Complex nose of bourbon, ginger, cloves and zesty citrus. Sweet vanilla and light sourness combine perfectly. Great beer

Bottle. Pours a golden body with a white head and light retention. Light honey and vanilla tones. Oak and leather white hints of etoh warming. Light bourbon apricots, and a wood y and vanilla finish. Nice offering.

Bottle. Poured a light golden amber. Nose is yeasty hint of sour. Sour note is light and compiments as opposed to overpoweres. Some sweetnes with nice carbonation. 

A little pre-lunch taste at HopCat before going on a cellar tour. Hazy golden pour with a thick white head. The nose is softly spicy with a kiss of light bretty minerality. A touch of honey and light lemon peel as well. Soft hoppiness with a little bit of brett character. It still has the honeyish palate of the regular local 1 coming through. Soft and chewy with a lightly lingering herbal character. A bit of soft yeasty spice on the finish. It’s pretty tasty, but the "wildness" is pretty subdued. A little bit of light tartness on the finish.
