What Our Editors Thought
“Sugar Daddy caramel nose with gentle bourbon notes. Punchy caramel notes in the sip convey energy with a bit of persistent hop bitterness, drying out the sweet intensity at the expense of luxury.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Dark chocolate cake with a sidecar of whiskey. Caramel, toffee, chocolate aroma notes are balanced by a hint of citrus hops. Alcoholic heat shows up early in the sip along with that citrus bitterness, chewy caramel, toasted almond, cinnamon.”
What the Brewers Say
“Brewed with butterscotch candy. Aged in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels.”
