Bottle: Poured a bright clear yellow color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of bourbon is dominating with some sweet malt also easily noticeable. Taste is a mix between some bourbon with some sweet malt. All fruity eater or spicy yeast notes are overwhelmed by the bourbon but I still thought it was an enjoyable mix and it wasn’t too cloying overall. Full body with some great carbonation and some alcohol is noticeable.

12oz bonus from JCB. Pours gold with a bright white ring. Nose is sweet with a nice citrus touch. Taste is sweet with a lot flavor. I’m iffy on tripels and this is tasty.

Bottle. Pours hazy hold with a white head. The aroma is fruity, with peach, orange, and pineapple. The flavor brings definite bourbon notes, as well as peach, spices and peppermint. Very different, very interesting.

12oz bottle, getting on two years old. At first pour this was brutal, but as its warmed its opened up and has turned into a fairly decent beer. Pour is a great gold with almost no head. Aroma is intense and very fruity, tons of esters, some booze and some toothpaste. Body is pretty thin, and some of that bourbon comes through in the flavor and blocks a lot of notes. Overall a bit tough to drink though not the massive failure I was expected by any means.

22, capped, thanks to ??? at the recent tasting. Pours clear dark gold with a white ring of foam. Lightly sour apple aroma, maybe with some butterscotch behind it? Light body moderate carbonation. Lightly sour and hot finish. This vaguely reminds me of a old cold and cough remedy: 1 jigger hot water; one jigger lemon juice, one jigger honey and one jigger bourbon. Tastes pretty much the same, except for the lower temperature in this one. I almost want to heat it up.
