What Our Editors Thought

“Spacious dark-chocolate nose beneath light fruity notes and vanilla-coconut bourbon sweetness. The sip brings sweetness; caramel malt layers and focused roast play their parts without dominating. Beautiful depth.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Lots of red wine-like notes over more typical chocolate, vanilla, and caramel. Rich dark-malt chocolate flavor with enough booze to complement.”

What the Brewers Say

"Aged more than a year in freshly emptied bourbon barrels, then finished in apple brandy barrels for over another year."
