Pour resembled dirty pond water. no carbonation to be seen. Nose is obviously bourbon forward, hints of vanilla, marshmallow, fig and plum. Taste is hard to decipher due to lack of carbonation, all the flavors kind of wash together. Good amount of alcohol heat, sweet fruits, fig, caramel and toffee, bourbon and lots of it.

Big thanks to rgtravers, I owe you one Ryan. Pours mahogany with amber edges and almost no head. The aroma smells great with musty malts, smooth chewy dark fruitiness and a bit of oxidation keepings things interesting. It them moves into notes of bourbon and oak. The taste begins sweet with creamy chewy malts, some caramel, plums, minced cherries, a modest level of whiskey and oak. Seems even more age can improve this brew.

2005 12oz bottle. Pours a very murky deep brown with almost no head leaving a very thin beige ring. Nose starts off with some nice bourbon and vanilla notes, giving way to some candied dark fruits. Flavor is bursting with toffee, caramel, bourbon, vanilla and again some candied dark fruits. Not much carbonation and a good amount of heat on the finish.

From 12-oz bottle pours a hazy and muddy brown colored brew with a thin film top. Aroma of caramel, bourbon, vanilla and a hint of maple syrup. Taste is full bodied, alcohol, with flavors of caramel and whiskey, vanilla, some light milk chocolate and coconut. Finish is thick and bourbon sweet aftertaste.

2005 Bottle shared at the Metro Detroit October ’09 tasting. Opaque mahogany pour with just a thin layer of head. The aroma has lots of charred oak, vanilla, a blend of bourbon and brandy notes, molasses and some oxidation which likely lent the brandy note. The flavor is wonderfully smooth, rich dark fruit with just a touch of bourbon and oak on the finish. Just a touch of oxidation in the flavor which added a nice buttery brandy note. Sticky, medium-full body with soft carbonation.
