22 ounce bottle into a tulip glass.
Pours a dark brown with a purplish tint, one finger head, some lacing. Smell brings bourbon, malt, blackberries, some yeast. Taste follows the nose with the bourbon, blackberries and malt. Also some vanilla. raisins, a little oak, a little yeast. Very smooth for the ABV, somewhat creamy, solid body.
Really enjoyed this one. The blackberries and bourbon barrels worked well together, and with all of that going on, it still stayed true to the style. Wish I'd have bought two....
