Appearance; Pours a clear copper color with a thin film; spots and streaks of lacing
Smell: Caramel, butterscotch and piney hops with fusel alcohol; just a hint of Rum
Taste: Caramel and butterscotch fusing with piney hop flavors; a lot of fusel alcohol in the finish; as with the aroma, just a hint of Rum arrives in the aftertaste
Mouthfeel: Full bodied with moderate carbonation; warmth in the gullet
Overall: A little bit better than the Fifth anniversary Bourbon barrel version but still, a disappointment; I am looking for a lot more complexity in the malt profile and a distinct barrel flavor
Thanks, cdubnbird, for the opportunity
