Had on tap at Jackie O’s Anniversary Party. Side by side tasting with the regular version. Why ruin a good thing? Loved the standard version. This one was a bit too "Boozy" for me and kind of masked all that was god with the regular version. A bit more wood on the flavor and a ton of hotness. Eh, I will just take the old standard.

Sampled at GABF, Jackie-Os was one of the standouts easily. Maybe the best line up. Smooth roasty aroma with lots of bourbon. Flavor is smooth, boozy. Chocolate, vanilla all wrapped in delicious bourbon. Awesome. Would love to get some more of this.

Growler courtesy of markwise. pours black with beige head. Aroma is bourbon, vanilla, caramel malts. Flavor, similar to aroma, everything one should want when it comes to barrel aged beers, boozy yet smooth and delicious, Hints of chocolate/cocoa powder, vanilla with warming bourbon.

GABF Taster X4 pours out black topped with a brown head. Aroma was rich malts, dark roast, chocolate, molasses, oak, and some vanilla. Taste wow every thing your nose told you and more. Thick mouth full of sweetness and a good balance of hops to hold it all together.
