On tap at Ebenezer's. Man, I love me a -bal aged beer, that's for sure. Garrett Oliver also rarely disappoints.
This beer is darkest brown in color with frothy tan foam and good lacing.
The aroma is very nice with caramel and brown sugar, oak, bourbon, roast, and vanilla.
Really excellent flavor, with the barrel aging asserting itself nicely. Very light sweetness and fairly low bitterness. Oak, bourbon, and vanilla, caramel, toffee, milk chocolate, brown sugar, and roasted nuts.
Medium-full bodied and very smooth on the palate. Good carbonation level. I really enjoyed this one overall.
Drinkable despite the heft.
