COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION

Draft at Bowie location on 12/24/12. Came to the table a hazy amber/rust color with a skim of a beige head. There was a well-balanced aroma of caramel, vanilla, a burnt oaky woodsiness, pine, and plenty of citrus. Went down full-bodied, syrupy, and awfully sticky. There was a great deal of caramel and candi sugar upfront taste-wise. Lots of vanilla and plenty of burnt, almost smoky, oaky/bourbon qualities rounded out the middle. Grapefruits and citrus rinds dominated at the finish. Things got a little too cloying for my tastes by the end. There was an abundance of alcohol warmth and booziness the whole way through. Good, just not really my thing.
