look: 4.5 | smell: 5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
12oz bottled 9-30-11, poured into snifter
A. Nice amber with ruby highlights, one finger head fades rapidly to just a thin carbonation ring around the outside top with a swirling whirlpool like formation in the center.
S. amazing caramel and butterscotch aroma, subdued bourbon, with each sniff it begs you to dig deeper, it smells delicious.
T. Caramel and brown sugar and scotch up front are balanced by the hops and oak, but smooths out yet again with a nice maple bourbon in the finish.
M. medium body with buttery smooth texture, minimum carbonation but sufficient.
O. Excellent bourbon barrel aged "old ale" or "wee heavy" depending on how you classify it. Highly recommended. This will vary year to year and is great to have in the cellar.
