Bomber poured a clear reddish brown with a lingering ring of tan foam. Aromas of bourbon, oak, cherry, toffee, pipe tobacco and light spice. Palate was medium bodied and smooth with a dry finish. Flavors of toffee, oak, bourbon and fruittiness with a smooth dry lingering toffee finish.

onceblind (2535) - Denver, Colorado, USA - FEB 24, 2013
Hazy amber hued with a sweet malty nose of caramel and toffee tones, and a good bit of hazelnut. Flavor was full and nutty with nice chewy malty toffee grain, a touch of hazelnut, a touch of chocolate, a touch of rum or bourbon or some sort of sugary liquor, with a warm semi-sweet finish.

arminjewell (4160) - Saudi Auroria, Colorado, USA - FEB 7, 2013
Pour on tap at the brewery, dark brownish black with tan head, aroma brought notes of odd metallic notes, some slight whiskey notes, mixing into some white and dark fruits, hints of spice, slight hops with some orange, very odd notes of pear in there as well. Taste is a mix of dark fruit, mixing into some caramelized sugars, slight yeast, touch of grain, hints of pear, peach, finishing fairly sweet, slightly bitter.
