Heads Up Bourbon Barrel 9MM

Brewed by Heads Up Brewing Company
Style: American Strong Ale
Silverdale, Washington USA

snifter @ beverage place barleywine bacchanal - tapped with much anticipation and a nice 9mm on the sign; actually called a malt liquor and it certainly smelled like a jacked up one; took me a while to get beyond the strong aromas and it drank as strong; took a while for me to get this one down and just not my type of beer, liquor or even liquid for that matter

ྫྷoz bottle) Sampled at the Post-post-Great Canadian Beer Festival 2007 in Victoria on September 9th, 2007. Courtesy of Oakes. Near headless with a copper body. Iodine, fresh figs and alcohol. Too powerful in aroma. Smooth bourbon. Lasting raisin and brown sugar. Wonderful.

Pours with very little visible carbonation. Dull dark amber colour. No head. Big heady bourbon aroma meshing vanilla with the caramel chewiness of the 9mm, and no shortage of booze. Big boozy brew with lots of maple and vanilla notes to temper the heat and to fill out the flavour profile. I like.
