What Our Editors Thought
“Derby pie soaked in bourbon on the nose—dark corn syrup, pie crust, light cacao. The flavor hovers at the lighter end of the caramel spectrum, with spicy sweet bread and caramel toast.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Rich dark fruit notes with caramel, toffee, leather, and vanilla. Quite boozy, but smooth and clean. Finishes sweet, lingers in a ripe cherry and umami direction.”
What the Brewers Say
“Double barrel-aged … 13 months in bourbon barrels and 7 months in blackberry-wine barrels.”
