pepsican (765), the beer wastelands of, Iowa, USA May 13, 2008 Updated: Jul 7, 2008 Dark brown with just a few bubbles floating on top. Aroma is musty bourbon. Flavor was bourbon, musty funk, some wood, cherry. Finishes slightly acidic, clean. Wish this had a bit more of everything.
OK...04 tomme was a completely different story. More everything, perfect acidity. Lots of cantaloupe, cherry, candy, white grapes. Holy hell this is great. 08’ gets a 3.5, 04 got a 4.2. Wow.
