Normally I shy away from this style because there is too much spice for me but this is well done. Just enough spice and barrel without being crazy.

Goblet served at Carson’s Brewery Taproom in Evansville, Indiana on a chilly evening.
Appearance: Deep ruby amber.
Aroma: Sweet and woody charred bourbon barrel, through and through. From the nose, I already sense that this is going to be a slow sipper, as the bourbon comes through very prominently.
Taste: Sweet and smoky cherry wood, with some tangy fruitiness on the palate. Strong but smooth. Finishes a little warm (fitting that this is considered a winter warmer) but cozy and sippable. Enjoyed this one, but it took me at least a half hour to finish due to it’s richness. Not to say this was hard to drink, just that it’s a big, sturdy brew that begs to be enjoyed in a mellow setting. Nice!
