Very dark brown with a tan head. Very dark brown with a tan head. Complex aroma, bourbon, dark fruits, brown sugar. Tha flavor follows the aroma. Equal to the Barrel-Aged Behemoth that I had just before this one.

A dark dark brown pour with a light white head. A sharp dried fruity aroma with abv just barely letting you know it’s there. A sharp fruity flavor that reminds me of cherries it is sweet sweet malt and closes with abv. A silky smooth palate taht is just a tad foamy which is 10 times better than fizzy. A very rich complex full flavor that just blasts your taste buds.

The beer I drank before this was FFF Barrel Aged Behemouth. That beer was great and I was happily surprised to find that I liked this better. Aroma is bourbony, there’s no question about that. There is a whole lot more, toffee, caramel, oak, maybe a hint of vanilla. The flavour is great and the body is smooth as ever. Well balanced bourbon in the flavour that doesn’t overpower that dark sweet malts. More toffee and caramel flavours. This finishes with a bit of lingering sweetness but not too much and it’s not too overpowering. Really really enjoyable.

I owe my main man bgburdman huge thanks for saving some of this for me! Really nice treat here. Lots of bourbon, wood, and malt in the aroma. Dark golden brown body. Full palate is nice. Taste is of heat, wood, and doses of malt. The bourbon flavor is very strong for sure--but it is a good bourbon flavor and incredibly easy to drink for being such a big brew.

One of the best beers of the weekend. Poured a real dark color with a light head. Aroma of bourbon, chocolate, caramel. Flavor was insanely smooth overall. Pretty strong bourbon to this was very good overall.

Pours a deep almost opaque brown with a light brown head. Aroma is of bourbon, dark fruits, and aged malts. Flavor is woody vanilla, aged malts, dark fruit, bourbon with a slight alcohol burn. Great barleywine.
