2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20Amber pour, not much head. Viscous bourbon, wood nose. Aroma burns the nostril slighly. More bourbon in the flavour, tends to over ride any other taste. Thin bodied. More bourbon flavour in the finish. Not the most complex beer. Not great.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
12 ounce bottle, honey heavy aroma which is different for a bourbon ale. This is lighter than anticipated but very tasty. The weight makes it easy to drink. Almost refreshing, again, odd for a Bourbon ales, but, pleasant. Good beer.

On tap, snifter. Pours a clear gold with no head - looks more like a cider than an ale. Sweet, boozy aroma with a little oak and vanilla. Taste is a little sweeter than expected - really is mostly bourbon on the tongue, with a very warm, alcoholic finish. Pretty good, but not something I’d ask for if I was really in a "beer" mood.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Solid, if a bit on the sweet and hedonistic side. Definite bourbon influence. Clean, delicious.
3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
This beer has a honey color with no head. Smell has a faint bourbon smell. The taste seems like a glass of makers Mark that has been watered down with ice
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle thanks to Scott. Pours out copper with not really much of a head. Aroma is of vanilla, bourbon, oak, light toffee and some caramel. Taste is much the same, lots of sweet bourbon, vanilla, toffee, light toast, caramel, lightly buttery notes in there, but not too much to ruin it.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours honey color with disappearing head. Very light aroma. Hard to make anything out. Taste is honey and vanilla with just a hint of mellow hops. Warm finish
3.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
From the tap. Pours copper color, thin head, clear. Smells great - sweet bourbon, vanilla, wood. Barrel taste is pretty overwhelming. A bit of malty caramel as well, but pushed out by bourbon and some alcohol. One was good enough.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Actually not too bad. Very thin for a bourbon beer but has a nice balance of bourbon and vanilla.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Essentailly this beer is like an English Pale Ale aged in a bourbon barrel. The aroma is bourbon, caramel. The appearance is a clear amber color, white head. The flavor is like the aroma exactly. The finish is bourbon, no booze warming, light sweet caramel. Boring really.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Aroma of mild roasty vanilla and pours a clear amber color with tan medium tan head. Tastes of sweet vanilla and caramel. I was expecting a little more boozyness considering it being barrel aged, but none the less it was a smooth beer.
