I found some notes from the Extreme beer fest in 2016
I had this beer, it was a draft sample Sweet brown sugar and caramel with bits of dark dried fruits and plenty of hot bourbon.

Drunk on tap at Oath Day 2015.
Deep, murky brown. This is as good a use as Jack Daniel's whiskey has ever had. Before getting into this beer, I really hoped the Jack character wouldn't come through, and it would just taste like some unidentifiable whiskey barrel beer. Actually, the Jack's rather prominent and compliments the base beer nicely--although dominantly. No detailed notes, as I'm writing this from memory, but I noted it as being a solid 3.5. Try it if you get the chance. Worthwhile beer that redeems Jack Daniel's for making otherwise mediocre whiskey.

Big caramelly, syrupy and sugary barleywine! Booze packs a punch but is definitely balanced by the sugar and caramel here. As it warms, develops more layers. A fine brew, make no mistake. Solemn Oath knocked it out of the park here.
